Israel to NY for Pesach With Continental miles
« on: December 20, 2010, 12:28:01 PM »
I am new to the forums page, I have been collecting Continental miles for a while now for a trip from Israel to NY for Pesach and right when I need them there is no availability. Can one of you pros help me in finding availability?

Thanks

I actually just helped someone book EWR-TLV nonstop for this Pesach for 75k miles.  May have been elite inventory though.

probably the only reason why the flights are going to tlv is only to have a plane for tlv-ewr

EWR-TLV has always been very hard for Peasch and Sukkos.  There's plenty of traffic going to TLV for the yomim tovim, usually those flight are just as full as TLV-EWR.
