Did DL recently raise their price of standard award for TLV? I believe the highest was always 105k, and now I'm seeing 130k (September)

TLV and all of Europe

My understanding is that Delta doesn’t really offer their lowest level ‘saver’ tickets for this flight. Therefore partner airlines cannot book Delta award tickets. Partner Airlines can only book saver awards.So to use miles for this flight, your only option would be to use Delta miles( that way you can book non-saver awards).

I thought they did, is this a new change that AF does not show Delta flights? Did you log in with Flying Blue when checking?

He means that AF is not showing any DL space for that date. Which makes sense, knowing how DL releases (or in this case does not release) award inventory.

Oh, and you can’t search AF for mileage without being logged in.

Air France doesn't show availability on that day with Delta.
On Delta.com it shows available JFK-TLV for 100,000 miles RT in economy, is that the standard amount?
Is there a way to get it for lower then that?

Is there a way I can monitor the fare between 2 airports for a given day? With all the sales that have been happening recently, I'd like to be notified if my desired flight gets included in a Skymiles sale.

Any way of knowing when the sale to Europe (specifically BRU for 26000) will be over?
