Seeing many dates in November, December, and Jan for JFK-TLV and TLV-JFK on DL Y for 40K points. most of them i.e. 11/24, 1/10 and many others look to be saver award bookable on Air France for 29k or Virgin for also 40k (but 30% off with transfer promo).

Even though its only Y, may be useful for some...28k Virign points to Israel on Delta seems to me like a bargain

Update: Looks like these awards extend all the way throughout the end up the year (around passover too)

Available for 40K to other cities like BOS, BWI, CLE etc (JFK stopover). It appears some dates not available to JFK are available to these cities.

 Not sure this is the right place for posting this question – I know that United used to have a 20% off sale every once in while on mileage tickets from the US to GRU (São Paulo)...hoping to go in January. Is there a better time to buy my mileage ticket now or should I be holding out for any possible mileage fare sales? Thank you! :)
