As someone who flew/flies with El-Al quite a bit in F I have to say these "new seats" are extremely disappointing (to say the least). I think the service/soft product in F has really improved quite a bit in the past few years but, as everyone here mentioned, the hard product is light years away from any modern airline. The only reason I still fly El-Al is if I cannot find seats on any other airline.

I'm scheduled to fly the new F product in 2.5 weeks (JFK-TLV) and I'll be happy to post pics/impressions but I doubt they'll interest many people here. Hard to even call the experience first class after flying CX/LH/SQ in F..
