Anyone know the hechsher on any of these flights if it’s reliable?
IB out of USA
IB out of TLV
LY out of BOS
J2 out of TLV
J2 out of GYD

(Seems like IB out of MAD isn’t reliable as per the wiki)
LY is definitely reliable if you request strictly Kosher

Wolf

Does he call himself Badatz Amsterdam? I thought that Ralbag uses that, or does Ralbag use Badat Netherlands?

What’s the latest on IB kashrut?

I’m flying JFK-MAD-TLV this year.

(It’s hard to search for on the forums as you need 3 letters)
