Thanks, MatthewLax, and congratulations as well.

howfreetotravel,
It's been a while since I've taken Delta to Israel. I feel that the BusinessElite seat on the 777 is quite similar to the United BusinessFirst seat. I found the Delta crews to be much snippier--even harsh--when I flew with them. But that was not a great time for Delta (close to the time of their merger.) I think that their world is better now.

I prefer United, El Al, and Air Canada, who all offer midday departures from Tel Aviv. Everyone has their own preference, but I do not like the midnight departures across the Atlantic.

I've never been one to take photos inside airplanes, of meals, etc. In fact, I didn't own a camera for a long time. So I'm sorry if I'm a bit of a sparing photographer.
