And?
Many of the items on my list were implemented, and many were not.

I guess that means he didn't respond as to why it was not done until then, he just took note of everything and passed it on to his staff?

He was there with his co-owner, his new CEO, and current COO over several meetings. I can assure you they took notes of everything.

I met the COO for breakfast at the WAJ ithis April, who laughed at all the fraparazzi coming over to interrupt out meeting for selfies. C'est la vie. I pushed about the items on my list that weren't fixed yet.

And yes, they also read DD/DDF.

So next time there is a price mistake, remember to only post it on WhatsApp.

Every good Jewish business has to be running on Whatsapp, we'll sometimes think of using slack :)

I think it's their cyber security protection messing around.
Happens a lot lately.

My workaround is googling elal, and the first link usually works

@Dan
While you are passing thing on to your pals at Elal
Can you find out why they won't direct ticket to BWI?
As someone who has multiple customer's out of Baltimore (and being Baltimore they are particular about everything being on one reservation.....
Elal will only price connections to DCA/IAD and not to BWI
FWIW I have been booking tickets to BWI through Delta. All on one res. 70k skymiles rt, TLV-JFK on LY and JFK-BWI on DL.

Our party of 4 is on UA 124 from Newark to Athens Greece this Sunday. Then El Al 542 to TLV on Monday morning.
 The schedule says we will have a little over 2 hours to disembark, get our luggage, check in the luggage with El Al and get to the gate. I'm assuming and hoping that many of the people on the El Al Flight are going to be on this United flight. I also noticed that this flight does not often take off on time from athens. Does anybody believe that they will hold the flight for us if the connection is too tight?

I was on a Emirates flight last week connecting with Elal connecting in Greece last Thursday, and they tagged my luggage straight through with out an issue, you just have to show the agent at the desk you flight
(BTW my luggage came out from the right away)
Have a safe flight!

Is that from personal experience, or from their T&Cs?

I need to rebook my ElAl flight out of Israel ASAP, but I am worried that by the time I get the voucher $$ it will be too late to book the new flight that I want - and then I will be left with no flight out.

When i requested last week, it took 2 days.
In the past it ranged anywhere between 2-14 days.

Is there a way to see waitlisted on El Al?

Currently looking to get from FCO to TLV on Oct 2, had a ticket emailed to me, now they claim I'm just waitlisted.

If you have a pnr/ticket number log in and it will tell you wait-list or confirmed
