Fare basis code: OS5C13N8Advance purchase: Book your ticket 14 day(s) before departure.Maximum stay: A maximum stay of 3 month(s) applies.Minimum stay: A minimum stay of 7 day(s) applies.
Not as tempting for Delta flyers as these book into O class but still an acceptable price for travel to Israel on a lie flat seat. FlyingBlue members could add 15 XPs with an extra AMS segment but gotta work around the CDG-TLV part (most examples of double connection have AMS-TLV which we most certainly don't want) BHX-CDG-TLV is 78 XPs Round-trip.
Delta flyers would earn 5086 MQMs and 1017 MQDs (based on 500 mile minimum) or a 1.33 MQD Ratio

Damn, I completely missed out on the fact that these were narrowbodies with EuroBiz. Thanks for pointing it out, although I'm glad the fare works via CDG as well.

With time, getting "proper" business class between Europe and TLV has become a hunt (I think KL and then LX were the last to switch to narrowbodies). I am not acquainted with what LY offers, however leaving that aside, this is what is left (and not all of these are daily):
- MAD: IB on 332, UX on 789
- CDG: AF on EQV (basically everything they have - 772, 77W, 332, 359 ...)

TP also sells "proper" business class on the LIS-TLV route, using A321LR aircraft with flat bed seats.
Recently IB has been frequently utilising its LEVEL aircrafts as 332 on the TLV route. These have premium economy -style business class cabin with a very limited recline.

Well AF is using the old High Density 2-3-2 777 on this route. So this is not really lie flat, its around 165 degrees. And honestly one of the worst C products you can get in Europe right now. For a four hour flight ok, but nothing fancy.

Does the BHX-TLV and vv route ticket as direct flights? The above example shows a transfer at AMS in each direction, but I only see one flight number in each direction. If so, be careful with segment and MQM earnings.
