How do You add your Skymiles to the ELAL Booking
I cant figure it out
https://booking.elal.com/manage/login

In Passenger details, you can click on delta Skymiles and enter your number

I’m seeing very good prices to Israel in February. Sample 2/7-21: MIA-TLV $976, NYC-TLV $848.
Some dates can be significantly cheaper booking through B6. Example: MIA-TLV OW on 2/7. $552 on B6, $711 on LY.

If you book now through April 30, you can cancel and get a voucher? Who is the voucher good for?

Also decent availability with QF. Haven’t seen that for a while.

If yes when did they allow you to select it?

Very likely. But try searching as 2 one-ways can sometimes be cheaper.

When canceling an Amex travel points booking on ElAl the representative says the the voucher must be used in one shot. The new flight is cheaper. Is the voucher different than the vouchers ElAl gives now? Is there any workaround?

Strange, I'm monitoring an LY flight this week NY-TLV which now shows (via EF) as A2 for the past 12 hours already but no dice on Qantas even on the phone... showing on Alaska though

Side note: EF is worthless when it comes to A availability via alerts, they just don't send alerts on that
