For those who don't read Hebrew:
Rav Sorotzkin (along with another 180 signatures) declared this evening they will now be avoiding El Al, since they haven't met the deadline to apologise by Sunday evening.
According to the article, Rav Sorotzkin was scheduled on an El Al flight to the US shortly after midnight tonight and has rebooked on Swiss

Do what what ever is good for your wallet.
+1, ridiculous boycott IMO, if you don't like how they operate, feel free not to do business with them, the rest of us will continue to use them when it is convenient to us and our wallets.

לדברי גורמים המקורבים לחברה, ייתכן שהפעם, תחת ההנהלה הנוכחית, אל על תצטרך, לראשונה זה שנים, לוותר על הנוסעים החרדים כדי להרוויח נוסעים חילוניים: "עם ישראל יוצא לנופש בסוף שבוע. קפיצה קטנה לפה ולשם, את זה עושים בחברות הלואו קוסט. וזוהי התנהגות אופיינית לחילונים ולא לחרדים. אולי בפעם הראשונה, אל על לא תיכנע כי הפעם מבינים בחברה שדווקא אי התקפלות בפני החרדים תביא נוסעים לא חרדים. אחרי הכל, מה הם יעשו, ידרשו מלופטהנזה גם לא לטוס בשבת?".

Wondering the same. Everybody is talking about LY002 and no word about LY008. I know there was a supposed medical emergency, but did they sleep in the airport?

+1 002 was scheduled to land before chatzos. 008 is scheduled to land very very close to Shabbos in the first place. There are rarely any shomrei Shabbos on that flight.

Sounds like a dumb management decision to me, the free Israel>Europe tickets aren't going to appease any of the shomer shabbos people on that flight.

It's a negotiating tactic. When they agree to give NY-TLV, people will be happy
