How long is your son planning on staying? If he is returning in middle of the year and going back Purchase one way, then I would purchase Round trip originating in Eretz Yisroel.

Is it still the case, that tickets for Yeshiva/Seminary students is best done through a travel agent?

I.e. Any way to use chase points or united points for a student going to Israel for 9+ months (starting Sept) with uncertain return date?

I'm not even seeing flights for June 2025 on airline calendars yet.

I am trying to book a one way ticket ewr-tlv on chase portal using chase points for my 17 year old seminary daughter. On the chase portal that is a child and it doesn't allow me to book her a single ticket. Does anyone know how to get around this?

The price for the NYC-TLV leg is $240 higher, when booking only a one way (relative to booking round trip) (at the least the dates I was looking at).

It's not clear on the website what the price would be to change the return ticket (e.g. from May 2025 to June 2025).
