El-Al's new low-cost brand, UP

Don't think there's a thread about this yet - wondering how this will affect US-Israel flights in the future.

Dont think this would effect USA flights for a long time. That is if it even lasts.

Disagree. It should affect the stop-over ticket prices.

Which, if it does, can affect nonstop ticket prices as well.

They charge for every bag under the plan, and for check in at the airport.
Make sure to calculate all the hidden fees before jumping on these tickets.

It's supposed to be an LCC. What did you expect?
