Any inside scoop on whther delta will match?
We’ll know later today or tomorrow.
My recommendation would be to buy this on Priceline before the seats dry up and if Delta does match you can cancel the El Al tickets until tomorrow night for free.
any deals from Chicago?
$998 round-trip on El Al, which appears to be regular price.
Specials for 11/30 depart with seats available?
Dan, can you see how many awards seats available 11/30 ewr to tlv saver ?
Why is it thru chase rewards I’m getting 80k points ewr to tell aviv
For which dates?
Just tried booking. Priceline says it’s pending booking and confirming with the airline. Does that mean I got it??
Should be good, just check back soon to make sure it’s ticketed.
Awesome thanks! Any thoughts on getting Priceline’s trip insurance?
Don’t have a card with free trip insurance?
Not sure. I used the chase sapphire card. Does it have?
https://www.dansdeals.com/credit-cards/chase-ultimate-rewards-premium-hybrid-card/
They usually do these deals on Cyber Monday and/or Black Friday. Do you think tickets will get cheaper and/or more will be released?
These prices are significantly better than last year’s Black Friday/Cyber Monday sale:
https://www.dansdeals.com/airfare-deals/israel-flights/cyber-monday-sale-fly-nonstop-north-america-tel-aviv-627-round-trip/
You could fly from NYC to YYZ for 5K AA miles then take the $605 to TLV
How do you get this deal by using points? The example above is from Toronto. I would like to use points from EWR to TLV and return from TLV to LAX
Did you try multi-city?
I would choose that but my problem is I can’t find where to even select travel with points on this deal. Where is it
Which points?
If you have chase or citi points log on to their reward website and bbok their. If you have barclays or capital one points, book on priceline and get a statement credit
Nothing from jfk at that price beg of Jan
Booked. Have 24 hours to figure it out… on a sapphire reserve, what happens if you cancel after that window?
If you buy on Priceline you have until 11:29pm tomorrow.
After the window it’s non-refundable.
On Chase UR after the window?
Just booked on last Thursday UA @ 928.00
Non-refundable after 24 hours.
So what’s the free trip insurance you mentioned on CSR? What does it cover for?
Medical issues and other unforseen circumstances. Read the guide to benefits or call the number on your card for the full list of covered items.
Nothing from jfk in mid Jan
Nonsense.
One example of many:
Sorry need the week of 7,8 , can’t go that late
Go from EWR.
Coming up 63,917 points or $798 jfk to tlv. How get 40k with chase sapphire preferred?
Points are worth 1.25 cents if you have Sapphire Preferred.
They are worth 1.5 cents if you have Sapphire Reserve.
Thanks
why dont you post the auctions on elal ?
I have.
what’s an elal auction?
What can one do about booking a minor without an adult. Orbitz and Priceline don’t allow!
What age?
13
elal currently has an ongoing auction
If i book with CSR points, can i cancel in 24 hours?
Yes.
Thanks, Jan 12-22 is $909, not $798, guess i missed it
It said it is contacting the airlines. I did not get a confirmation yet. Is that normal?
Normal. Check back soon.
if i book thru the chase website using UR, will i have the 24 hr cancellation policy? is there any travel insurance included or should i purchase travel insurance?
Please read the previous comments.
Thanks Dan!
I got EWR TLV round trip for 53K Chase points
Nesiah tova!
whaat dates?
Read the post.
is booking through UR the best way to use the UR? they seem to redeem at 1 cent/pt only….
If you have a premium Sapphire or Ink card you get 1.25 or 1.5 cents each.
Thanks, Jan 12-22 is $909, not $798, guess i missed it
Still alive.
Not working for me.
Checked various dates and it’s in the $900 range.
If you post specific routes and dates that aren’t working I can cross them out and suggest nearby dates that are available.
Or as shown in previous comments, post a screenshot of it being bookable.
Looking for Feb 10-17 showing only for $909. Even with flexible search +/- 1 day not showing this price
February 17 is sold out.
You can return on the 16th or the 20th for $798.
Dan and/or anyone else knowledgeable –
What are the chances to have sales for August?
If yes, approximately when would they be?
Thank you!
Sales are typically held 1-4 months before travel.
Recently bought tickets direct during august in the low $900s
What airline? What website?
FYI
Tlv- nyc 5/26 to 6/2 is coming up as $1084, guess it’s sold out
1. This deal is for flights from North America.
2. This deal is not for flights departing in May.
Trying to get NYC area from 1/15-1/23. Coming up $1099. Any suggestions?
Use the dates in the post?
The 15th is not a valid outbound date.
Oops! I misread the Tel Aviv/NYC as the other way. Thanks Dan.
Unfortunately the 16th gets in too close to Shabbos for us.
Tried booking from Jan 21 – Jan 28 ewr/ jfk to tlv and no sake coming up . Pls advise tysm
Those dates are both sold out, but you can go 1/20-1/29 or 1/23-1/30 for example.
TY. i got it but those dates dont give me options to use points. can i transfer marriot points to chase or just to airline to be worth something??
would tickets purchased on priceline be available to cancel until Tuesday night since tomorrow is not technically a “business day”?
I am trying to book travel using Chase points, but I do not see anywhere on priceline offering to accept points for this trip-?
There is a link in the post for redeeming Chase points.
any hope on getting a good deal on 12/1-12/08 from NY to TLV?
Any deals from Charlotte?looking for a non stop from Charlotte?
I am trying to get 5 tickets for my family in February for around 2 weeks and I can’t find any date combination available at decent prices w/chase sapphire reserve. I am starting with 1 ticket and then counting up. Any suggestions?
Which dates in the post did you try?
Availability opened up today so I was successful. Thank you!
What’s with biz?
If u book thru chase with points you will get back miles?
Yes.
It says refundable within 24 hours but chase says until 11:59p PST. That is more than 24 hours. Do I go by that one?
If I book through Priceline can I add a lap seat child by calling Elal?
Yes.
We just called Elal and they did not allow us to book (add on) an infant.
Nasty. What should we do?
Whereis the 600 price Dan? gave up searching. looking form ewr to tel in feb.
Read the post.
Will this work on a one-way from TLV to SFO?
I booked tickets in August on MY Chase SR for about $50 higher a ticket. Any options to get chase to credit the difference via price protection?
I booked 2 tickets thru CSR, Thanks Dan, however i wasnt able to select seats via chase, how do i go about seat arrangements?
Try via Whatsapp chat at +972535663033
Or call +972-39771111
Thanks Dan, worked like a charm, small point, if anyone wants to see the seat map beforehand, can look it up a seatguru.com
What’s the cancellation policy?
Do people go during January and February just because the prices are lower? The weather is not the best then after all
What is considered a good price in August non stop ?
