So because I started making my plans for Pesach this year very late, I am stuck with an interesting routing dilemma and I was wondering if anyone with experience can help.
I wound up putting a mileage flight on AA on hold with my wife to LHR, and I found a round trip from LHR to TLV on ElAl, which I also have on hold.
The AA flight arrives in LHR at 8:40pm on Sunday April 17th, and the ElAl flight leaves from LHR at 10:30pm.
I have been assured by AA that the baggage can be checked through, but I wanted to know if anyone with practical experience might have a better idea of 1) the possibility of getting my bags checked through from AA to ElAl, and 2) How long it should take to transfer from Terminal 3 (where AA lands) to Terminal 1 (where ElAl leaves from) at that time of the evening (both assuming I can check my baggage through, and if G-d forbid, I can't)
I do not have elite status, and I am flying coach, so as far as I understand, I won't be able to go through the fast track security. Please let me know if this well be doable with my time constraints.
Thanks,
