At about 2,230 miles from London Heathrow Airport (LHR) to Tel Aviv's Ben Gurion Airport (TLV), a nonstop runs roughly 5 hours, give or take with the winds. The nonstop award space in the data is split between El Al and British Airways. Aircraft logged on those nonstops include the Boeing 777-200 and Airbus A321. Most award options in the data connect. Nonstops are just about 11% of the total.
On a run like London–Tel Aviv, cash fares are real competition for points. The economy floor connects once; an economy nonstop on El Al costs more. Taxes and fees on the cheapest economy seat run about $267, in line with the route's typical economy taxes. When the fare is low, pay cash and hold the points for a pricier trip. Virgin Atlantic Flying Club is a bank-points transfer partner, but transfers are one-way, so confirm the seat before moving anything.
Virgin Atlantic Flying Club is cheapest in economy at 9,000 points and premium economy at 18,600. British Airways Executive Club wins business class at 26,750 points on a British Airways nonstop. Of the other four, Qantas Frequent Flyer, Air France-KLM Flying Blue, and American AAdvantage are worth a look too. Economy is a partner award on Air France too.
El Al and British Airways both show nonstop award space on London–Tel Aviv. As a oneworld member, British Airways also sells its nonstop through alliance partners, not only British Airways Executive Club. For connecting options, the better-priced awards in the data connect in Paris, Amsterdam, and Copenhagen. In premium economy, the floor sits on Air France, booked through SkyTeam partner Virgin Atlantic Flying Club.
From the London side, London City (LCY) and Gatwick (LGW) both start at 23,000 points in economy, well above the route's 9,000-point economy floor, so they're only worth it when Heathrow is sold out. Confirm which London airport the award uses before transferring points.
