Starting late October YYZ  - TLV on LY (and AC some dates) economy prices out at $740 RT so business class is double the fare. Is this part of the sale?

It will also only earn M class points

It upgrades automatically into R right when you buy it?
Yeah

I think more but it anyways it doesnt upgrade. It’s a YYZ deal.

Doesn’t really pay from NY bc you can usually get superior TK for around $1700/ow $3000/rt

AC J looks so much better, especially for someone who only eats mehadrin.

Ask @Chaikel
The TRs here make it look like the same KSML, no?

I’ve flown both multiple times and prefer Elal bc the AC seats are a bit claustrophobic, but most prefer AC.

Everyone I've spoken to has the said the opposite.
You like the Polaris style more than reverse herringbone?

Never flown Polaris.

I know I’m in the minority on this one, but as long as I can get a seat in the middle 2 on Elal that’s better for me. I prefer the spacious feeling to the privacy and seat angle.

I can understand why most prefer AC.

Anyhow Elal is switching to a 787 soon which is definitely better

The LY 787 is the same as the UA Polaris config, though it's narrower on a 787 than a 777. Why is it definitely better than AC's 787 reverse herringbone?

Bottom line, if you're contemplating a trip to IL in the next year (after Jan 13), LY is probably the way to go.
1) Your readers are far more anticipating an LY trip report than an AC TR
2) These LY fares are FULLY refundable (unless PL charges their own fee - Expedia doesn't AFAIK), while the AC fares have a 600 CAD refund penalty.

Fare is only valid originating in YYZ, correct?
