AC YQ should be about the same as SQ.

To avoid YQ, book with UA.

Just as a btw:
If flying RT, it's usually not worth using miles to book Economy flights to Israel (you can sell the miles for more and just buy a ticket).

Thank you very much.

UA is 140k on partners, so not an option.

What metal would KE, JL or CX book?

You can't use miles to get to IEV and there's probably no J products that go there. Try KPB?
