Buy a voucher to Israel?
« on: July 18, 2013, 07:17:52 PM »
If one wanted to purchase a gift voucher for a RT to Israel, how would he or she do it, if possible at all?

(One thought was enough points for a standard ticket at. say, 150,000 UA, but do any airlines sell actual vouchers?)

Let me get your question straight.

You want to buy a voucher than can get you on any RT flight to Israel.

I never heard of such a thing (not saying much), but I like the 150K UA thing.

You can also do 300K+ DL ;)

Yeah, like as a bday gift.

"Hey Dad, here is a voucher I bought you. It's good for a RT to Israel." (i'm assuming subject to blackout dates?)

I know el Al sells booklets (packages of ten) but I don't think they all individual tickets
Life isn't about checking the boxes. Nobody cares.

Just make a nice card online and upload a "coupon" on it for a free ticket to TLV with your phone number on it to redeem.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

So you'd use miles? UA I guess?

If you can do it using less valuable miles, and there are no strange routings, it would be be better to use a less valuable currency.
