valley stream, n.y. | In an effort to cultivate a meaningful connection to the land of Israel, Israeli airlines El Al and Israir offer many programs and discounts to encourage teens and young adults to travel to Israel.
“With these special fares, now is the time to book tickets from the United States for a summer vacation in Israel,” said Michael Mayer, North and Central America general manager of El Al. “We are committed to delivering affordable fares as well as offering the most nonstop flights and convenient connections, making travel to Israel easier than ever.”
For those with upcoming simchas, discounted airfare means that holding their event in Israel can be much more affordable. Israir also offers family-friendly vacation deals throughout the year and special fares for yeshiva students who plan to study in Israel.
In addition to the discounted fares, there are other perks for the students and their families: combined hotel bookings, extra luggage allowances, discounted tickets for parents visiting their children and the option of “open return.”
“At Israir, we pride ourselves on being ‘in the know’ when it comes to finding the best deals on hotels and vacation discounts. We then pass on the savings to our customers,” notes Stuart Katz, managing director of Israir. “With Israir’s newly extended service following our being granted status as an officially scheduled carrier, more and more people are choosing to travel to Israel.”
