depending on what flight you take but you can fly to zrh, bru or lhr and if you have enough time go to a shul for a minyan
which flight would make it not missing shachris, mincha, or maariv?

if you fly the 930pm flight to London you can daven mariv here scharit and mincha in London and mariv in tlv.
Flying to zrh /bru this time of the year you will miss mariv/unless there is a minyan on the plane but scharit would be in zrh and mincha in tlv

In ZRH there was a massive maariv in the terminal.

There is a long list of poskim that say it is assur to daven with a minyan on a plane. Someone even put out a sefer with all the teshuvos on this 1 question. Seems to me that when you come upstairs, they will have a bigger issue if you did daven with the minyan, than if you didn't.

I know that there are many people that haven't missed a minyan in x number of decades, and I'm extremely impressed with them, but as a jew the number 1 thing we have to do is what God wants us to do.

You can get a red-eye to London, and then the red eye to Israel, and you shouldn't have to daven on the plane

In that case, the job of an Ehrliche Yid id to find a flight that allows you to Daven with a Minyan.
Heard a story about a Yid who came to his Rov and asked him, is it true that one is not obligated to lay out money for Kibbud Av? the Rov asked him what's the case? So the Yid told him he has an older father who lives in a different town and needs his help, but train fare is expensive (and no reward availability :D ) So the Rov answered "you are right, you are not obligated to spend money for a train ticket, you can walk" :)

I believe that this is the OP's intent as most people wouldn't go out of their way to daven with a minyan. IMHO, it wouldn't be assur as the long as the FA's are fine with it.

I'm assuming that it would be more than 36 minutes out of someones way, so they would probably be patur.

I was under impression that the assur of davening on a plane was because of bothering everyone and causing a chilul hashem.  I once asked the stewardess if we could daven and if so where.  She was very nice and told me where to organize it.

i recall reading r' shmuel vozners psak when elal distributed it with the mehadrin meal, that one shouldnt make a minyan by congregating in the back of the plane, rather work it out in a way that 10 people should make a minyan by sitting near each other. but he didnt say you shouldnt daven with a minyan. i havent seen the psak in a while so i might be mistaken, but im pretty sure that was the gist of it.
