EL AL hasn't changed its FFP policy for almost a decade despite of the changes in the industry. One of the reasons for not doing so , is not having an alternative. Now it does. EL AL has launched FLY CARD and set a significant set of benefits for those who choose to issue it:
• Attractive bonus tickets fares in most destination. EL AL will allocate more seats for bonus tickets.
• A very attractive conversion rate: NIS 250 = 1 Matmid point or NIS190=1 Matmid point if you issue FLY CARD PREMIUM- the most attractive conversion rate in Israel).
• More points for your flight tickets.
• Pay for part of flight tickets, purchased in the website, with points. and also get points for that...
