Which was not fair.... A lot of people are selecting their airline according to how safe they rate it... So they chose to fly El Al and were actually flying another airline without being informed.
Regarding the livery, it is understandable that a plane would not be painted in the full El Al livery for just a few weeks/months.... Btw, today number of leased airplanes is much higher in the El Al fleet than it was in the 1990s.
