United Matching El Al’s $749 NYC-Tel Aviv Round-Trip Cyber Monday Sale! Or Fly From Just 37.4K Points Round-Trip!

Dan, are any of the airlines matching El Al’s rates from any cities other than NY?

Can i originate in TLV?

@Eli O:
Yes, they are matching from BOS and LAX as well.

@Nate:
No.

Any matching with business class?

Can you upgrade to business?

@Alexander:
No.

@Anonymous:
It’s very expensive to do that.

will this work for TLV-JFK

@leo:
No.

Dan its me DAVID , if i book that economy ticket can i after upgrade with Points to business class?

where?!?!?
that number / price is not there?

Dan – United publishing only 42.5k each way for NYC outbound flights on the days provided

where can you book the points ticket from?

@David:
It would take a lot of points plus a large cash copay.

@david fischer:
For what dates?

@Yitz:
I didn’t say anything about United miles. Read the post.

@a:
From AMEX or Chase.

Will this work FROM TLV to JFK or Newark on any of the 3 airlines?

@Izzy:
Read comment 2 and 8.

@Dan
I booked a united ticket about 2 weeks ago is there any chance of them price matching to the current sale?

R u getting points 3x$1? If so, then it’s 35k MR !!!

Thanks Dan. Can you please update if and when United matches El Al’s dates that work for Pesach and beyond? 😃 I.e., outbound end of March and return flights in April/May. Thank you!!!

@Yudamaan:
Only if you pay the change fee.

@Dealer:
Huh?

@Lee:
They don’t make sales that far out.

@Dan,
When u buy with points on amex it comes first as a cc charge. So my q was if u get 3 points per dollar on these charges? If u get 2,244 MR then the total points used for the ticket will be 35,195…

The return on January 28th is only for a flight on Shabbat not for the flight after Shabbat

@Dan: I was asking only because el al had those dates yesterday at the low price.. Thanks in any case for all your good work!!

Sorry, u only get 1 point per dollar, or 2 points per dollar when u book on amextravel.com

I know you said you didn’t write a thing about booking with points but in the title of the post you wrote “Or fly from 37.4K miles round trip!”
So I have the same question about how to book with miles

tried various dates in March (before Purim) from NY/NJ airports & did not get anywhere close to the $749 fare.

@Anonymous:
That’s not what I said at all.
I said I didn’t say anything about using United miles.
The post clearly says which points I’m talking about.

@Willie:
Did you read the valid dates in the post?

thanks so much dan. just booked round trip non stop with united leaving end of feb 2017 & returning 2 days before purim for only $748.79. thanks also to el-al.

Any deals depart December?
What is best for pit/tlv/pit?
Thanks

what did you say about the $600 travel first year?

Thanx.
Booked for two with Biz Plat for a Shabbos in Yerushalaim, at the beginning of February.The complete trip beginning with the accumulation of points is thanx to you. Be gebenched !

I tried booking with united last night leaving feb 22 coming back mar 2 (dates you wrote) and it didn’t show 748 for any flights on these dates. does that mean it was all sold out already?

i tried to book 5-feb to 9-mar and united gives only T-class for $868 even its available seats on K-class(for a trip starting in tlv)

@weiss:
It died last night.
