I do hope they won't send bigger airplanes (as he suggests) so the A359 remains

Hainan planning flights to Guangzhou

Every time I read a story like this I can't help but think it was a missed opportunity for EL AL who had their heads in their rear ends with regard to opening new routes.

Now we know how LY will handle the reduced capacity to NYC when the 789s start replacing the 744s:

EWR will go double daily (11 weekly) for Summer 2018

eff 29OCT17 Tel Aviv – Newark 6 weekly. Subject to Government Approval, service increase to 11 weekly from 25MAR18
Source: http://www.routesonline.com/news/38/...from-sep-2017/

Timetable for 01-07 April 2018 (from Amadeus):

LY 27 TLV 0030 0540 EWR (day 5)
LY 27 TLV 0115 0600 EWR (day x56) [my comment: was the departure slightly delayed to accommodate LY 76 arrival at 2335, like LY 5 is now?]
LY 25 TLV 1350 1835 EWR (day x56)

LY 28 EWR 1330 0655+ TLV (day x56)
LY 26 EWR 2100 1425+ TLV (day x56)
LY 26 EWR 2145 1510+ TLV (day 6, moving to 2330 1710+ the following week)

I guess this means more seats overall?

I like the addition of an afternoon flight and LOVE the addition of a night flight. Right now, UA is the only option at night for a direct flight EWR-TLV. Whether or not this causes a price war with UA, at least I'll have another option. When flying with a baby, much prefer that over the afternoon flight.

A 9pm departure from EWR is excellent
and
the 2pm out of TLV is very interesting as well.
Nice scheduling.

New destinations are always good and with all the chaos at Alitalia, Italy is a great target market for them. I wonder, however, why they don't make some of their other services daily instead of just a few days a week.

They will still need slots, wouldn't they?
What stopped them so far from landing between 2-5AM and take off in the morning?
