Flying this morning after a 7 month break
Very sad to see TLV so empty

Incorrect. They're asking people at the airport for proof that they purchased their flight before September 25. I'm not saying it's impossible to forge a ticket for an earlier date, but they're definitely making it very unpleasant to fly.

I can confirm.
When I showed up this morning they asked me when I bought my tickets. Told them September 18th (true story). I was ready to show him the receipt but he took my word for it.
And yes, definitely not complicated to edit the date on the PDF of a receipt

Obviously

But in the rare event that you're caught lying, you can be charged with criminal charges (was clearly stated in the warning)

Local press points to David Brodet for new chairman

https://www.globes.co.il/news/article.aspx?did=1001344842

Most recently he was chairman at Bank Leumi, and successfully managed to decrease the workforce by over 20% while managing decent relationship with the trade unions. Bear in mind that banks' employees have tenure so it was a significant achievement.

IMHO probably the best candidate to deal with LY HR issues

Talking about new destinations following peace agreements etc.

If you had to guess what these new destinations might be?? (Besides UAE)

Source:
"El Al's board of directors needs to work together with management to add new destinations, enlarge operations and expand due to the large options and potential that have opened up in aviation after the signing of the peace agreements by the State of Israel with the UAE and Bahrain.

Would be interesting if Rami Levi ends up buying Israir and they too would stop flying on Shabbos.

What is the best way to contact elal these days? They didn't respond to my watsapp (yet). Need a seat for someone who CANNOT be stuck in a middle.

Many good points... but surprisingly no mention of an overhaul of its FF program...
