To head off useless suggestions like "just look for an El Al winter sale ticket!" and such.

Thanks for the advice. Anyone else have any other suggestions?
your best option is avios to LHR for 12.5k miles and $57 taxes, returning with easyjet, as Drago said

I'm guessing that YQ is only outrageous ex-LHR...?

Chk it, but I recall that it wasn't so terrible, although there's the additional LHR fees which you have to pay which bumps it up.

You've also gotta ensure that there's seats since they don't always appear to be open.

Not sure if anyone is interested, but I've been seeing cheap Aegean fares that end up in Greece, Spain and Italy.

One example: Feb 8-11 to Barcelona at 5.9 cpm ($226.12) in P class (I think that's most likely only really helpful for crediting to Aegean itself, but you might be interested in that)

Seems like Aegean's new chart will charge award redemptions on their metal by the distance flown, w/ a 7k min.
That means that TLV-ATH (or elsewhere in Greece) would price out at 14k RT?

And the rest of Europe would be a good value as well.

No. The 8x is for their international flights. You have to scroll over.

Their best value still is OW on *A in J 45k TLV to North America, or 60k in first about a third of what UA charges but they don't allow mixed cabin bookings.

Seems like LOT is flying the 787 TLV-WAW on Oct 19, next sunday. As well as Monday, Oct. 20

Not bad for people scheduled on that flight.
