Their prices aren't that cheap anyway, can't see a ticket for less then €400.

Great. Too bad they don't fly anywhere I want to go like MXP,AMS or CDG. Hello, Easyjet - I am talking to you.

Wizz Air Launching 3 desitinations from TLV to Eastern Europe

In October, Budapest based low cost carrier Wizz Air will launch routes from TLV to Romania, Poland, and Lithuania. The article can be found here: http://www.globes.co.il/serveen/glob...60948&fid=1725

This means increased competition for EL AL to Europe.

Starting date of CLJ changed to 24 November (when I looked in W6's website two days ago it showed flights from 27 October [at least that's what I think I saw], now it is 24 November).

Good news! Looks like they have connections from SAW to CDG, LGW, MXP, VIE and AMS. Now, if only they could do something about the horrible transfer security lines there. Every time I change there on Pegasus it takes 30-45 minutes to get through the one x-ray machine they seem to have for the entire airport.

I hope it's later than that on the TLV return as most of the flights from Europe to SAW arrive around 8-8:30pm
