Everything worked out real well. Crew was fantastic. Have more help at Tel Aviv counters, ticket check in
Ben Gurion Airport was very slow; we were queued for more than 2.5 hours just to get to the counter agent to check in and drop off baggage. Consequently, we were in a panic while waiting for security clearance, and then ended up RUNNING to the boarding gate. Literally managed to get on the plane with 2 minutes to spare before the official gate closing time- needless stress!! While the flight was comfortable with good seats, pillows and blankets, as well as well prepared and substantive meals, the experience upon arrival at Toronto Pearson Airport was a disaster. El Al uses Terminal 3, which I haven't used in probably 10 years. This is a terribly overcrowded and overwhelmed terminal, designed for 2 million annual passengers that now has to attempt to handle 15 million I was told by an airport employee while waiting for nearly 2 hours to clear Canada Customs. Will NEVER use this Terminal 3 again- a horrible experience.
All services and communication with passengers
Very long check in process Needing more staff
Crew was friendly and offered did and beverage shortly after takeoff
Only way to fly to Tel Aviv is nonstop on the Dreamliner.
Cheaper flight Very high prices
The pre flight service was incompetent unknowledgeable regarding COVID 19 Canadian laws . As well the level of communication was very poor while the language used by ElAl personnel was inadequate and offensive. All in all was a bad experience for all the members of my family and therefore I will do whatever it takes to make public my bad experience on all media platforms Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, official El Al website and other.
Everything is excellent!!!
the check in was quite poor. i did not know what line was for elal and what was for air portugal. a big mess. very annoying. also very frustrating was that the airplane left one hour late because a prior flight was late. but they must have known that in advance and should have alerted us to come an hour later. where was the consideration for our time?
Plenty of leg room on the new el al planes. It’s a miracle.
