i think it is hard to justify paying that when you are already using miles.
That’s why, just like you I can wait for el al award redemptions.
they are currently the only airline with LAX-TLV direct.
the one thing I was wondering is American flys from DFW MIA and JFK to tlv, So you are able to pay cash for LAX-(MIA DFW JFK)-TLV, but I was not able to find these flights using Alaska miles.
I searched every day and did not see the AA flights for awards. I opted for a Finnair flight with an overnight in HEL, and then RJ on the return with an overnight in JFK all in J. The RJ rates are reasonable in J.
