Starting around 900 a seat but nonetheless not worth it
why wouldn't it be worthwhile to charter a flight for these dates

Yes
It's maybe RT with an immediate turn. If you need to stay a week, you can triple that or more

IF that were true it would be very profitable to do 2 separate RT's (one for NYC-TLV and one for TLV-NYC). I doubt that number is correct

+1.

Chartering a flight would be a TON more expensive then just buying regular tickets.

The way the airlines usually make money off these flights are by the cargo

And J/F seats.

Where do you get this information
http://www.privatefly.com/us/private-jet-charter/estimate-prices?flightSearch=1753156#

going through all of thier planes it seems the cheapest would come out to 887 per passenger one way (assuming all 310 seats are occupied)

You can't Google these prices. They aren't public. But they are correct

You can easily fill a plane with chanadniks leaving tlv to jfk between yom kippur and sukkos. Then the guy who wanted to charter jfk-tlv for sukkos will return with that same plane right away, so there won't be any waiting time fees.
You can do the same idea for the way back.

Problem is that we are talking about 300k investment and for some ddf members this is a cost price without profit ....

What about your overhead (office space, commissions, marketing, payroll, legal issues, etc etc)?

You have a 300k CL with Amex? Impressive.

I wonder if it would qualify as airfare on PRG, 900k MR is a nice side-profit.
