Airfare deals are typically only available on limited dates. We recommend that you use Google Flights to find dates to fly, then book through an online travel agency, such as Orbitz, which allows you to cancel flights without penalty by 11pm Eastern Time within one day of booking. Remember: Fares may disappear quickly, so book right away and take advantage of Orbitz's courtesy cancellation if you're unable to travel. Additionally, keep in mind that discounted partner fares may not earn miles with US-based carriers.
For the price of a typical coach ticket you can fly business class between Toronto (YYZ) and Tel Aviv (TLV) thanks to discounted fares from Jet Airways and El Al. We're seeing fares as low as $1,346 round-trip, valid for departures between now and March 2017. These fares are certainly cheap enough to justify buying separate tickets to and from Toronto to position yourself for this flight.
You'll get to fly in a lie-flat business class seat on the segment between Toronto and Amsterdam on Jet Airways, and then you'll have a standard recliner business class seat on the segment between Amsterdam and Tel Aviv on El Al. We've seen some itineraries that involve a segment in economy. To avoid this, simply search for different dates that display only business class results. Once you've selected your dates, continue to Expedia to complete the booking. Note that Expedia will quote prices in Canadian dollars (CAD).
