What are the sensible mileage options from TLV-LCA or Paphos? AA doesn't seem to have any, and UA is lots of miles.

I once saw a site which gives all the mileage options, anyone know what site that is?
Paid flights on LLCs are often very cheap
Chk LY pricing as well

Not worth it 99% of the time.
The mileage cost vs the revenue cost makes revenue tickets a lot cheaper and when the revenue prices are extraordinarily high, you won't often find mileage options.

It used to be possible to fly first class on Cathay Pacific from North America to TLV via Hong Kong using 70K Alaska miles. In early 2020, Alaska announced they would be joining OneWorld. Dan surmised that this would spell the end of this deal: https://www.dansdeals.com/more/news/airline-news/uh-oh-alaska-will-join-oneworld-alliance/. Did his prediction come true?

It seems like the only direct flights to Malta is Ryan air once a week on Shabbat in both directions.
Anyone know of other options or heard air Malta might start their flights again anytime soon?
