Yep I would never fly LY the only reason I booked was because of the new plane and now they just switch it. But other airlines do this too not just LY

How did you get 9.60 for taxes? I think mine came out to $60-70

TLV-EWR 42.5K UA +$43 (Y)
Still debating if it's worth the extra 30k for Polaris.
IAD-JNB 80K UA +$5.60 (I)
hoping JFK-JNB will open

Maybe not, seems they don't have a direct flight from EWR.
