I feel like you are a really strict teacher. I WILL do more research, and I thank you for the tips you've shared.

I really am sorry. :)

Identifying every possible booking option to Israel using different cards/points/miles is not something I can just write up and post. Even in person, it would be a long long class if I even knew everything, which I don't.

There are DD main site and DDF forums threads devoted to Israel travel. Take a deep breath or two, and begin your education.

If you'll notice, when you came back with very specific questions that showed that you knew something, we were able to answer you. When you went back to very general questions, we sent you back to learn more. Just saying.

But generally speaking:
chase's best option to israel would prob be united which is 42.5k a one way.
others might argue other options are better, so as said a lot of research. .....

Please give me advice on how to earn air miles to fly to Israel. Also interested in best airlines from New York to Israel for next summer (2015) and deals on renting apartments for summer in Jerusalem.
Thank you

That is so much awesome in one little article!

My favorite part:

"So what can 421,860,000 AmEx points get? According to the American Express Co.’s website, they can be converted to more than 28 million frequent flyer miles or about $180,000 worth of vouchers at Hong Kong retailer ParknShop."

28,000,000 miles, OR.... $180,000 at ParknShop! LOVE IT!
