It's going to be a nightmare at TLV when people realize they want $100+ for a carry on...

But not the size for a full carry on.

Only positive I can see about this is avoiding the need to purchase RT tickets.

Years ago domestic US flights would also be considerably cheaper when booked as a RT, especially with a Saturday night stay. As far as I can tell, that doesn't exist anymore in domestic US air travel. A RT is the sum of the two OWs.

If WOW air entry into this market will result in the elimination of the RT with Saturday night stay requirement for low fares, it will be a boon to all travelers.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

Still exists in the US on routes without nonstop LCC competition.
Not going to change anything in the TLV market until there's a nonstop competitor.

What will need to happen in order for that to happen? A more efficient aircraft? Which US gateway might it happen with? PHL? I would imagine JFK, or even EWR are just too high cost in order to be able to make low-cost work on this route.

JetBlue would have to buy a A350/787 type aircraft. Sadly, we're probably a decade away from that happening.

BWI would gladly welcome a LCC.
