According to their website

www.flyniki.com

They already fly 3/week TLV-VIE direct. As AB are joining oneworld, you can redeem on these flights also (they are subsidiary of AB I beleive - was given the option as a reward on BA.COM)

Niki Air was founded by Formula 1 race driver Niki Lauda after he sold his controlling interest in Lauda Air to Austrian Airlines.

Does AZ have four daily flights now? I'm flying TLV-FCO-JFK after pesach and am on an 8:30am flight. I have also seen that they have a 5:30 flight, a 1415 and 1700 or something like that. I also have a theory that they put on extra frequencies for the Jewish holidays - can anyone confirm this?

SK, not SA. Never flown them before, but I've used their BRU lounge a bunch of times

Very happy about this - although I wish they'd do daily service, it's a good start and a good way to get more *A seats out of TLV. Now if only some *A carrier would start flying to London again! I may have to start my own airline to make that happen...

I'm holding out for VS to join *A...and start flying the route.

Right!

Sorry about that (SA indeed codeshares to .il with LY, waiting for them to actually operate the route).

SK's lounge in terminal A in BRU is slightly better than the SN one, but still far from being exciting. Somehow, BRU does not really have a decent lounge.

Why not have LY joining *A?

Or are these anti-semitic airlines of central Europe don't want any jews in their alliance (sarcasm alert: refereeing to the CEO of LY who said this crap).

As are many others

Exactly why I use the SK lounge instead. The IB lounge is better, but it isn't *A. It's actually disappointing that BRU doesn't have a decent lounge, and if they want to become a major transit hub (which they've stated they do,) they'll need a lounge. Even a nice Senator Lounge would do. This is a M&M hub.

Yup - got that. I think LY would have a better shot at joining OW, and that would also make a lot more sense.

Easyjet adding 2 more flights a week to London starting in November, bringing the total of flights to 9 a week.

(can't find the original article, but I'll look for it)
