UA has some roundtrips TLV-EWR pricing at ~2k. If you're looking for a flight OW to EWR, you can make the return as a coach cheap flight (with stopover). example - TLV-EWR in business on Mar 21, returning May 1st in coach with a stopover, will cost $1236. If you use Amex plat points, that comes to 80k. plus you get miles for flying and towards status. Even if you just need a 1 way, it's (much) cheaper to book the roundtrip...
