SAS has an awesome offer, especially for families with many children. With 1 adult fare booked on flysas.com, you get free tickets for children 2-11.

Book before January 23rd, flights between Feb 7 and Apr 9. Works for Economy and Economy Plus.

For example, I priced out 1 adult plus 6 children in Econ Plus (Saver) EWR-CPH-EWR nonstop roundtrip - $1,308 total for all 7 seats!

Only valid for flights operated by SAS, departure has to be from USA and destination has to be in Denmark, Finland, Norway or Sweden.

HEL seems to be a good option if you wanna do TLV, about $300 a direct flight between HEL and TLV.
So that's about $1260 for 9 pax, which makes it about $140 each, plus $300 for the Finnair flight, that $440, ok

Two things to keep in mind:
1. you're probably connecting in CPH/ARN on your way to HEL (that one never gets old :D), so it's two stopovers to TLV. Not fun with lotsa kids (which is when this deal really pays off).
2. Make sure you leave ample time for Mis-connects, if you miss your connecting flight due to a delay, and it's a different carrier/PNR, they might not be so accommodating.

I would do that for pesach but the deal ends 4/9 so return would be after the deal ends. Does it work for OW? If so what kind of return can I find?

Works fine if just the departure is before Apr 9

You'll be hard pressed to find a return. Best bet is probably a one-way though the Former Soviet Union (Aeroflot, UIA, AZAL etc), I'm pretty sure they have cheaper one ways compared to other carriers.

Does it leave in the evening and arrive in the morning, otherwise you'll have to overnight in HEL, adding costs to your journey.

hel to tlv is evening, tlv to hel is early morning.

I pieced together an itinerary with  9 hour stay in Helsinki from 11am to 8pm. I don't mind looking around the city for the day, I'm just not sure I want to do a 2 stop trip to Israel

Anyone else have an opinion on this?

Or I guess the question is if we have 8 other people here willing to spend $140 to find out.

Ostensibly yes, I didn't try this time but IIRC last time it was only bookable on flysas.com, not on OTA
