what does rdm mean on wheretocredit.com website?

Redeemable miles (as opposed to elite qualifying miles)

Airline: Elal
From: JFK
To: TLV
Fare Class booked in: Y (JFK-TLV).  Y (TLV-JFK).

According to wheretocredit.com, my only options are Qantas, Elal, and Aerolineas Argentinas (not an option realistically). Not sure if Qantas would be better than Elal, any thoughts?

Not seeing that as an option, think Qantas may just be the best option at this point

If you plan on flying PS again, you can credit the flights to PS where you'll get just above 10K miles (including a 1K birthday bonus but it doesn't have to match with your DOB...) And that is enough for an upgrade from most fare classes to Premium Economy between JFK-KBP.
You can also credit to Flying Blue where you'll earn about 8K miles.

when i pull up my reservation on their website, there is no way to add any FFN, (no way of adding GE/TSA pre number either)
also they offer a seat selection online but theres no way of knowing if its E+ or not....
their website is not that great...

You have to PUTPAC to add a FFN (obviously it won't work for the segments you already flew, you'll have to claim retroactively).
They don't have E+, they have a seperate Premium cabin that won't show on the seat map if you have an Economy ticket.

Flying KLM 4 round trips in total between everyone ( family members) in the next few months  As far as Elite status I guess I am not  flying enoughso its really a non question but as far as getting miles to fly between TLV and the US, which SkyTeam member gives me the most value.
