Is it a direct flight or a stop in Frankfurt ?
I flew NYC - tlv and back on Lufthansa first and the flight between Fra and tlv was a small aircraft where the business section was just 1 empty seat in the middle of a 3-3 configuration

So is it not worth the flight in First?

Swiss J is available, which flies widebody to TLV. Some would say F experience and FCT is worth the sacrifice, although many would advise LX J for maximum comfort.

I did not say that.
I have flown business and first , it's still a experience the fct and getting driven from the fct to the aircraft , being escorted till the exit of the airport.
But I would have been happy in business as well. I used sq points and I wanted to change the timing leaving tlv to Fra and sq forced me to pay for first even though I was booked in business from Fra to jfk

Having issues seeing AA availability with IB.com even though BA sees it. Any tips? Should AA flights be bookable online? Can phone agents help?
