Agreed. Most of the Israeli people get to ETH once a year, or even less than that.
I think that the big excitement is because LY starts a new route, which is a thing we don't see very often.
I also think that instead of 3 daily ETH flights, they should have opened another european destination (like CPH) - daily flights, and to ETH 2 daily flights.
If they were smart enough they could have handled it.
