Maybe so, but can you provide a credible source as to why NOT just PHL-TLV was axed, but all of Israel? I mean it's not like there's a pittance of travel between the U.S. (NYC, LAX, etc.) and Israel. It's quite difficult to swallow that AA dropped Israel for financial reasons, when they fly to (for example) ATH, which is nearly as far and primarily Tourist/Cruise traffic. AA essentially ceded Israel to their U.S. rivals, Delta and United - why ?
