This is one of the lowest nonstop business class fares that I’ve ever seen from JFK to Tel Aviv.

Israel remains closed to most foreign nationals unless they receive special permission to fly to Israel or travel as part of an organized group. Israel plans to open their borders to vaccinated tourists in the near future, though details have yet to be announced.

This fare is not refundable. You can make free changes to any other American flight, though the difference in fare will be owed.

This I class fare will earn 17,033 redeemable and elite miles when credited to Alaska or 14,194 on when credited to BA.
