As the last option left that I could afford, I booked this one. If they fly, they fly. If not, I'll stay in EY for Pesach.
TLV-EWR, connection in ATH (1.5h in, 55m back), Wed 2/Apr to Wed 23/Apr, Emirates and Aegean.
If anyone else is interested, they are charging $800 for a regular ticket on this date and a few others:
Departs April 2nd, 6th, 7th, 8th. Returns April 23rd, 26th, 27th and 28th. There are probably more but this is what I looked at.
@Darth1 @ShimonFly @yfr bachur Thanks for your input, wouldn't have made the plunge without you.
It is pretty amazing that this was the cheapest Pesach flight...
