American, Delta, and United have excellent nonstop business class fares between NYC and Tel Aviv.

Israel is currently open to vaccinated or recovered people who have first degree relatives in Israel or a qualified special occasion. With Israel’s COVID case and positivity rate plummeting to nearly zero, the hope is that the country will reopen this summer, at the very least for vaccinated or recovered travelers.

Changes can be made for free, but the difference in fare will be owed and refunds are only offered if the airline cancels or reschedules the flight. You can however change the flight to an inexpensive $40 flight and get a voucher for the difference that anyone can use.

United has excellent availability on business class fares from Newark to Tel Aviv for $2,449 round-trip. Delta has very good availability on business class fares from JFK to Tel Aviv for $2,449 round-trip. American has limited availability on business class fares from JFK to Tel Aviv for $2,339 round-trip.

Which airline’s business class should you take? I’ll try to tackle that in my next post.

Using Chase Points:

You can pay for the ticket with “hybrid points” such as AMEX or Chase points with a card that allows your points to be used at an increased value for airfare in addition to be able to transfer points into airline miles.

If you have a Chase Sapphire Reserve® card you can redeem points for 1.5 cents each towards travel. If you have a Chase Chase Sapphire Preferred® Card® Card or Ink Business Preferred® Credit Card you can redeem points for 1.25 cents each towards travel.

You can login to your account and redeem Chase points for travel here. The round-trip cost will be 155,941 points with a Sapphire Reserve. That rate include all taxes and you will still earn flight miles as well!

Using AMEX points:

• If you have an AMEX Business Platinum Card you can get a 35% rebate of points used.
• Registration is not required for business class fares.

You can login to your account and redeem AMEX points for travel here.

This is bookable for 204,982 points with AMEX in coach. Plus you’ll get back a 35% rebate with the Business Platinum Card or a 25% rebate with the Business Gold Card, dropping the total needed to as low as 133,238 points. That includes all taxes and you can still earn miles for flying!
