I like how the email says "El Al is bringing its prices in line with those of the airline industry" ...

I am still waiting for an email that announces "El Al is bringing its SERVICE in line with that of the airline industry" lol

Im looking at flight for Oct from YYZ- same price as AC...whats the incentive for me to pick them over AC? Matmid...? Lol..The lack of AVOD for an 11 hour flight?

Also noticed on YNET that they also increased the Matmid points redemption for bags:
"The company noted, however, that members of its frequent flyer club would be able to covert the cost of the additional baggage with a Matmid Frequent Flyer Club voucher, which will also increase from 140 points today to 200 points"
