In 1973 I was getting on a plane at Lod airport. The security guy looked at my passport and says "I see you visit mostly Eastern European countries. Why is that?" I said I'm studying Slavic languages, particularly Russian literature." The guy, who was my age, switches to Russian and as he's going thru my baggage says "Why don't you tell me a little about the character development of Parfen Rogozhin in Dostoevky's The Idiot." Surprised, I started doing my usual "I'm not prepared for this" analysis of the character development. He finished my luggage and says "OK, you can get on the plane but I suggest you read your Dostoevsky a little more carefully."

El Al has a crazy security because on April 17th 1986 a flight from London back to Israel, there was an attempt of terror attack on El Al plane, from that moment their security goes harder and harder ever since this terror attack attempt

El Al does a background check on every passenger before the flight, especially on a route like Dubai-TLV, so they knew you were an avgeek with a youtube page and the crew was briefed before the flight to take extra care of you during this flight, and not even question you even though u went to Iran and Irak.

Having someone, for whatever reason, pointing lasers to a plane, says it all!

As an Iranian, it is a shame that I cannot try Israel flight and go for a trip there. I hope this problem solve soon

That flight attendant had no ring on her left hand and I promise you she wasn't being nice to Josh on accident LOL 🥰

When I flew in the U.S. we could also carry guns and a lot of us do. It’s a post 9/11 thing. What infuriates me are the disgusting people who try to blind us with lasers. The FAA has at least taken measures to try and prosecute these losers to the fullest extent of the law. We spend a lot of time and sweat to become pilots and for someone to try and take our passion away and endanger passengers is just unconscionable.

An ELAL 707 was hijacked sometime in the late 1960's and the Capt decided to do a part barrel roll by tipping the plane sharply to one side thereby throwing the hijacker(s) off balance and being overpowered by the passengers.

About 20 years ago, my mother flew El Al from London to Israel. She was a wine buyer at the time. She remembers that El Al had no trouble with her carrying her corkscrew onto the plane. When she flew from the states to London, TSA had confiscated it from her and sent it through baggage. She asked El Al's security person why it was allowed. She says they told her their security check showed her to be a wine buyer and that she had held that job since retiring from being a school teacher 12 years earlier. They did not think that a wine buyer carrying a corkscrew was anything that threatened security. So El Al might have the toughest security, but they are, also, realists.

El Al crew are the best, I once had a 12 hour flight and spent all night chatting with crew and drinking unlimited amounts of coffee and wine while the entire plane was asleep.

Aviation brings everyone together.
That was best part of the video.
Great video Josh

[meeruisland]

Years ago when I was in the military a couple of us went to Norway to give instruction for the winter Olympics armed with a couple of large camera box's with inert items, the Capt came off to view them as the EL AL flight and their own security machines were next to us....as the box went through the couple watching the screen immediately stopped having seen something suspious tell you not one of the 6 security missed that item and it was small, would fly with them anytime

Same thing happened to me on an AirBerlin flight to Tel Aviv years ago.. I took the upgrade and they showered me with niceties. Not exclusive to EL AL, although I really like the airline and never had any bad experience with them. Cheers

I have the honor to fly with El Al air lines from JFK to Tel Aviv and enjoyed the travel and the meals served. Wonderful airline, wonderful service and God bless Israel.

[jessicahawks]

Wow very impressed with how amazing the crew were so attentive and helpful

I live in Israel - 24 years in Aug 2024. When I worked at Boeing - 747, 767 - in wire integration - there were areas in the plane we were told to leave alone. El Al would later put in additional security.

[josephpetrus]

Absolutely enjoyed every bit of this video. I truly felt sitting next to you and almost felt that service flowed through the video. Well done!

[angieparks]

The Flight attendant really makes me want to travel to Tel Aviv just to fly El Al!
