THANKS NETZIH!!

I am still looking for data points as to whether people skipping the flight to YYZ will get partner credit. I believe the earliest flights available in this deal were in November (although if I'm wrong and people were already able to take some of those flights, please correct me), so I assume we'll have to wait until mid-to-late November for the brave individuals who chance it to educate the rest of us.

1) Don't credit your miles to United. There have been many reports of United miles being clawed!

Tried several times to drop EWR leg. Keep insisting that have to wait for the flight to list as delayed. Would not have helped in this case. Any ideas, for tomorrow nights flights?

Don't give up! Call tomorrow morning

Thanks. Will keep everyone posted. BTW the Thursday flight is slated for 12:15 PM (PHL-TLV)-not 9:10 PM.  Is that a new time for Thursdays?

Great! Anyone on these flights better fight to drop leg if they want to make it to Israel

Reference yesterday's flight from Newark to prove your claim

So here is the saga of 13 people on yesterday's LGA-PHL-MUC-TLV flight originating at 3:35 pm on 11/26.   The flight was only slightly delayed out of LGA leaving at 4:15 PM.
Got into Philly on time. Slightly delayed out of PHL leaving at 7:15 pm.  Got into Munich on time but that is where it went all wrong.  There were no directions on how to get to the Elal terminal F which is very far from where we landed.  There was about an hour between when we landed to get to the flight. By the time we got to terminal F Elal had closed the terminal and there was no way to get in. Elal flight left without us. After sending us from one terminal to another Usairways booked us to Frankfurt and now another 3 hour layover until we get to TLV at 11pm.

There will be no food on the planes. What do you think compensation should be and to whom should we address?

Hence one reason why one should pay a little more and not have a risky stopover..
Another reason; hassle to get to and from a different airport.

Hatzlocha to all, hope it all works out!
If there is anyone in PHL now and was there overnight, and going on tonights direct flight, PM me if you want me to bring you a normal meal tonight.

For 461, I'd do it again.

of course I'm talking about as opposed to the direct flights that were also on sale (at the same time), just a little more $

Too many stories of LGA flights not  getting to PHL on time ....

I'm concerned about missing the 9:10 PM flight from PHL I have scheduled on Chanukah. If I try to get on an earlier flight out of LGA we will have a problem with Menorah lighting.

Any ideas on what to do?

Thanks
