Until when can I purchase luggage online?

Waiting to hear if I was upgraded and I don't want to pay for luggage if it's going to be included.

I'm assuming from premium expensive fare class for this rate, on which route? Is it by chance NYC>TLV? Those flights seem to be quit empty these days

Had 2 economy tickets TLV-FRA that I wanted to cancel. They told me I cannot but they can "freeze the tickets" and I could rebook for a year.
I did that.

My question is, can these "frozen" tickets be converrted to a voucher? Can I transfer them to someone else &/or diferent itinerary?

TIA

ask them if you could pay a fee to get refunded or vouchered
I had a frozen award ticket on El al and they refunded me the miles for a fee.

Figured I'd check after the fact... Am I able to claim El Al flights on partner airlines to get points in addition to on El Al Matmid? Or only on one.

All airlines have a rule that you can get miles and points accrued to only one program.
The only rule when it comes to flying is that it is all UP IN THE AIR!

Anything you can do with a ticket
that you won't be able to use that was bought with points that were going to expire and 70 dollars in fees?

Got it. When in doubt it’s the filter’s fault.
