Yes it's a 3 hour rental through avis for 99€ and that includes 150km, gas, and insurance (IIRC there's a 1,500€ deductible). An additional driver is 10€ and additional km's are 0.99€.

Regarding P/U, we did it in FRA and it was pretty quick, and we just dropped it off at the FCT and they took care of the return.
Do they drive you from the lounge to the tarmac with a porsche or the "porsche" experience is the rental (or 2 separate things)?

I assume it's subject to EU age minimum age laws?

If JFK then AA F

I'd take B6 J Suite over AA F.

Never drew B6 suite (yet....) so I can't compare, however I found AA F  to have a lot of room and space Vs B6 (visually). Soft product obviously American sucks.

Definitely this.

Flying United 77W from TLV-NYC tonight in J. Question: the flight is blocked at 12 hours. Will united give pajamas? They say pajamas are provided on flights *over* 12 hours. Is this flight included?
