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.

This is bookable for 69,101 points with AMEX. Plus you’ll get back a rebate of 24,185 points with the Business Platinum Card or 17,275 points with the Business Gold Card, dropping the total needed to as low as 44,916 points. That includes all taxes and you can still earn miles for flying!

NY

Why even mention this when Israel doesn’t allow foreigners in and keeps pushing dates with no foreseeable opening date

Dave

Good values are good values, regardless of the circumstances

Nat Zitomer

Many people are automatically eligible (Israeli citizens) to enter, and more can apply for special permission. The airlines have lots of flights with lots of seats to fill–so they’re cutting deals.

Moishe

Foreigners are allowed for a variety of special reasons. Its just a pain in the neck to go thru all the paper work.

Yitz

No Disclaimer now that the Vaccine was announced?:)

Ms

Any dates around Pesach?

A.G.

I’m seeing way more dates than written in December

JJ

As the post says… There are tons of dates each month.

Sam

How far out can you change your flights with United? I’m seeing it needs to be within a year from when you booked.

1991

@dan
Currently, what is the best way to book a ticket (regarding cancellations, refunds, etc)
Directly with the airline, travel agency, chase UR?
Thank you

Chaim

I would love to buy for August, but who knows if the country will be open by then. 🙁

OD

if you use chase points can you cancel for any reason and get the points back for free?

OD

Dan where would you credit your miles to?

Fjdo

United or ANA-(if u want to pool family members)

OD

chase points cancellation policy?

David P

Did anyone find flights for sukos?

Fjdo

Are there any airlines that stop in Amsterdam from TLV to NYC? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

tzadik

Have you tried KLM? From ams you can pick up either KLM or delta

Shaun

Elal we flew them than DL or KLM home

Isaac

Are these tickets refundable or can they only be changed?

@yu

Is there any trick to combine an ETC with Chase points to use up the ETC?

L

Can I get refund if I cancel or United electronic certificate to use on other flights or will only allow change to rebook on another tlv trip?

Bs

What is the cancellation policy by issuing chase points

Yym

It’s $3600 business class. Is that a good deal? Is it worth it to book now or wait?

bs

this price was even before this deal

united

Try using a HC on the return, and you will probably knock off a few hundred

Danman

@Dan, are MileagePlus tickets still able to canceled with no redeposit fee?

Chaim

Hi
I have a Business Gold Amex and they won’t let me get the 25%. They say I’m not eligible to select a preferred airline.

deals dealer

Thanks Dan! Booked 10 tickets for family trip in the summer…

yed

Matched by DL!

Y

If I book a few months in advance though Chase points, is there anything I can do if they don’t allow US citizens in by then to cancel and get my points back, or to rebook for another time without having to pay extra?
Thanks!!

dl

I get $916 from JFK with Delta on priceline

Roberta Rappaport

On Orbitz Delta is not coming up with that price.
On Expedia, neither Delta nor United are either.
And ElAl doesn’t appear at this price at all.

iahphx

Given the Covid uncertainty, this price is not good enough to buy. It is simply not worth the hassle. Unless the price is insane (like $350), wait for more certainty. There will be deals then, too.

Dave

Dan,

Hope you’re enjoying the RV trip!! Many here are concerned due to Covid and non ability to travel, particularly to Israel. Can you add to your post how cancellations/refunds would work…..? I think you may have posts elsewhere? Maybe links can be provided if you do? TY!

united

If I have Gold Status at United, and Platinum Status at Delta (thanx Dan), does anyone know which should be my preffered airline (potential upgrades, extra luggage etc)?

hersh

What’s the best deal that I can get for business class

Chaim

Not seeing this price for El Al on any site.
Can someone help with this?
Thanks.

NYC

Just booked 2 tickets, Thanks

ross

I’m waiting until you can use points to become an Israeli citizen. Then I’ll book.

Faigy

I am trying to book Sept 2nd but am not seeing anything close to these prices. Did I miss something?

Nat Zitomer

Any deals thus-far with origin TLV?

G

Points novice here: When I book with points, do I still get my sapphire card’s benefits (trip cancellation insurance; lost luggage reimbursement etc)? TIA

OD

It would be appreciated it looks like by many if you could clarify cancellation policies for paid and chase point tickets!

Moishe

Does anyone know, if a spouse of an Israeli citizen flies with her Husband to Israel , does she need a ISHUR [Entry Permit] ?

David

Yes! Every Non-Israeli needs one. Even if they are a spouse or child of an Israeli.

DDFer

“Request an electronic travel certificate as a refund so that you don’t lose any residual value when making a change to a less expensive flight.”
@dan If you book it now, can you still cancel a United flight for an ETC?

anon

why is it showing 55k points for me? not 46
