| 1330.1 | about $600 is a good target!! | SQGUK::LEVY | The Bloodhound | Wed Apr 21 1993 21:58 | 30 |
| Hi,
The dollar pound exchange rate is currently about 1.55 dollars to the
pound. So, $1058 would equal �682.58.
The charter airlines from London - Tel Aviv are currently charging
from �189 return including airport tax (�10).
In the newspaper I see adverts to the USA from �199 for Boston and
New York.
Adding the two together you get an total of �388 or $601 with a
possible stop off in London!!
If you are need accomodation in Israel you will also get the best
possible prices through the London travel agents who can beat
any deal offered in Israel using proteksia and all!!!
My advice is to buy a Jewish paper from one of the Jewish centers.
New York if you can find one. The paper should have adverts from
Similar Travel Agents to the London ones who specialize in Israel.
Otherwise, I can get you the number of a couple of Travel Agents in
London and maybe you can book through them.

| 1330.2 | also consider El AL | SQGUK::LEVY | The Bloodhound | Wed Apr 21 1993 22:08 | 7 |
| Hi,
Just to add, I have been told by a friend who will be traveling with
2 children that it is cheaper to fly El Al as the reduction in child
fare more than makes up for the extra that an adult is charged.

| Go to the Israel Book Shop (410 Harvard St, Brookline) and pick up a copy of
The Jewish Press. There should be ads for travel agents in NY who have good
rates.

| 1330.4 | Try the Jerusalem Post, too..... | SQUEST::SQUEST::WEST | | Thu Apr 22 1993 16:55 | 9 |
| The Jerusalem Post also has advertisements on fares from NY to Tel Aviv
for $699 or so..... I think two different travel agents are mentioned.
I dont know what restrictions apply.
If you want info, send mail to me and I will send you the phone numbers
(dont have them here with me)
