I don't think so. I've generally found that BA's fares aren't particularly competitive on the LHR-TLV run and I assume this is primarily to handle an anticipated increase in connecting North American...

I know it's tempting to imagine some old preserved funicular tram trundling up and down the Great Orme as a tourist attraction, but modern funiculars are actually pretty good. My wife's family lives...

I assume that 2500 figure is both ways. Keep in mind that that figure is provided by the TfL PR department! A frequency of fifteen seconds is frankly optimistic in practice - remember...

There is no way a monocable gondola system is going to be suitable for the numbers of passengers that will be rocking up at Parkway at peak times. They can only fit about half a dozen people with...

Hey, I'm a mere passenger, not an industry insider, so I can merely deduce things, not know them for sure. I travelled twice via LHR this summer (the fares were actually LESS than ex-LTN on those...

Nearly 40,000 on TLV! Crikey! And El Al took the bulk of that - the only reason the figure isn't higher was their lack of aircraft!

I wonder if Luton airport management has designs on enticing El...

I saw on the El Al UK Facebook page a while back one irate El Al passenger make a complaint, later converted to an official complaint, after waiting over 90 minutes for his bags.

I don't know how...

Possible. I didn't think of that.

Could be his entourage flying home. I think it's unlikely that the Prime Minister himself would fly on the all-Y configuration 4X-EKI, nor would he fly an...

Today an El Al/Sun d'Or B738 flew in to LTN presumably empty from Vienna on an Arkia flight number and flew out again en-route to TLV.

It wasn't on the departure board so what was it doing?

Is there a technical reason why a 747 can't get into Luton? I'd always assumed they had just chosen not to send one.

What's the deal with the 777 now that taxiway delta has been downgraded? Do...

I see there were no 777s scheduled this summer, but that's not to say they didn't operate. :)

Those two 777 flights are scheduled for the day before the beginning of Sukkot until the day after it...

Simply dizzying El Al outbound capacity increase on the 26th August, in the form of LY214 and LY218 - the latter operated by a 767! Five outbound flights in a day!

Heads up!

Recently (i.e. as of yesterday) El Al started leasing a B763 from Privilege Style for use on various routes over the summer. Presumably this is to fill in some gaps left by the new B763...

Was it half-empty? El Al have been demanding simply extortionate fares this High Holidays. Perhaps the profiteering backfired.

Scanning the schedules, El Al appear to be slashing flights to just 4...
