New EL-AL Status Match program begins...

Program valid only thru Travel Agent,
On internal mail they were called to recruite as much as possible high status members from other airlines, whoever that will "move" to EL-AL will get:
- Free signup
- up to 800 free points
- Extension of the membership to another year if FF manage to qualify the transition period (not mentioned what exactly, but probably same as before).

The Agent which will recruit the most ffs:
- First Prize: 2 x Business Flight tickets to NY or Far East
- Second Prize: 2 x Business flight tickets to Europe.

for the hebrew readers that want more info...

Any chance that they'd match my AA Platinum Status?

Hide pages?? (from the url)
ETA: Interesting that UA is there, I think that they're the only ones that don't currently fly to TLV. Of course that will change after the merger.

By the way, other than the free points nothing different to their previous status match offer, albeit an unofficial one perhaps.

And in regards to these free points, they seem very vague as to how many one would actually get.
What does "up to" 800 points mean, and what are the T&C of this offer

Personally i think its illegal to do this (bribing the TA...).

I would really like to meet one day the person in EL-AL who thinks about
all of those "neat" things... And ask him when they will start one day to think
about the real loyal frequent flyers they have.

I am not talking only about myself, I know people who fly T/V class like 20 times
a year, and barley be able to get to GL...
