What does the ba link dan mean?

Does moving to Israel mean my days of racking up miles will be over?

Is the british air card worth it for the 50k miles since i prob won't meet the threshhold? not a big fan of annual fees....

1.-Dan has a link for BA, maybe someone will post it here for you.
2.-You can still apply for credit cards from Israel (though the spending is not always as easy)
3.-I'll let others weigh in on this one, though 85 dollars (95?) for 50000 miles (two round-trips in the US) is not a bad deal...

It's $95, 100k miles after $2,500 spend. The card has no Forex fees, so you can spend the $2.5k in Israel.

50K after spending $1, 50K more after spending $2,500.

50K after spending $1, 50K more after spending $2,500.

Thanks...

50K after spending $1, 50K more after spending $2,500.

Plus of course 3,125 for spending the $2,500=103,125 miles.

Thanks all! How would I use those miles to get to and from Israel without extra fees, and what happens to the miles if I cancel the card?

I don't think there's a BA Israel option without fuel surcharges. If you cancel the card after the miles post you keep the miles. If you cancel within 60 days you might get back the annual fee (just make sure the miles posted before you try that).

What about Israel- Europe? Any non-fuel charge flights for that?
