What is the best airline for award travel EWR-TLV in either J or F? Not looking for best redemption value, rather best cabin/experience.
Direct?

Today AA flight got cancelled to YUL due to weather I booked 10:30 a delta flight leaving 10:45 and for sure I didn't make it they rebooked me for 3:10 any compensation to ask for the system letting me book a flight what's not possible to catch.

Now hoping my 3:10 flight not getting cancelled

No compensation for weather

My family is making a wedding the end of May in Israel. We are going to need 11 tickets from the  New York area,the cheapest flights have been hovering around $800 for awhile now , should we continue to wait for a sale or book now before the prices go up?
TIA

LH and AF F would also be great options.

A3/LY both fly direct. AZ also has a morning flight.

What about leaving from JFK?
That opens up JFK-MXP on EK F A380 (vs the B777 into ATH), or SQ R available as JFK-FRA.

Either of these will have a longer flight as the EU-TLV (4h) vs ATH-TLV (2h), but the cabin / experience for the TransAtlantic is much better.

As much as I would love to take the A380, it isn't worth it for me to go from northern Jersey to JFK. I'm not taking a car and EWR is just a quick Uber trip away.
I guess I'll have to forfeit my shower...

If you fly to ATH you will have the shortest time of Fake J/Y

True but you'll probably have the best experience with AF 777.

A 7-8 hour flight in F is such a tease

If going with EK, how are you booking? You might get complimentary Chauffeur service (which could take you from your home to JFK or EWR).
