You also can do LOT via WAW, Brussels via Belgium, Austrian via Vienna, Scandinavian via Copenhagen, all with lie flat at least on the trans Atlantic part.  and i probably forgot one

Op wants complete lie flat, which is why he/she excluded FRA from the list.

Read again what i wrote

You can't compare a four hour cramped flight from TLV - Europe, to a short one hour flight PHL-NYC, YYZ-NYC

where do you see that mentioned? op excluded FRA for a completely different reason

What are my best options for J/F class flying from tlv to nyc with a stopover, excluding FRA since I would have to make 2 stops ?

and i clearly wrote

He wanted the best options!
Which is definitely:
BA, Swiss and Turkish should all have lie flat J. Or AC to YYZ, US to PHL or DL to JFK.

Ant not:

your options are obviously better,

However mine are also better than other options, not sure why you think they should not be mentioned? FRA-TLV is also not lie flat IIRC and OP didn't seem to care if not for having to make 2 stops

your over thinking this

Yaalili didn't mention the ones you did, for the reason I mentioned before; they're not the best options, they are options but secondary.

And what is the reason my boy that you have to make 2 stops to go to FRA? When you go direct with LH? Well that is because he wants lie flat and therefore he needs to make another stop in IST or ZRH or LHR.

Thanks, any idea how to book the below?

Can i book LAS-LAX-JFK on AA business for the same price as LAX-JFK?

I am trying to price it out on AA.com but its charging me double the price when i do a multi city search, it's only a 2 hour layover in LAX so not sure why

TK (IST-TLV) isn't always lie flat.

More like my feet, but still was not the greatest for me. Not knocking the whole product, but I'm sure for a taller person, it can be uncomfortable. We need SF to comment on this, and if he hasn't flown it, get him to fly it.

Guess I'll take one for the team.

Who's sponsoring ;D?

I didn't, but why would it be different than any other domestic 738?
