Can I Get El Al Compensation For Delayed Flight?
My El Al flight from Tel Aviv Airport to Newark Airport delayed for 6 1/2 hours thus far.
Am I entitled to any compensation for my delayed El Al flight?
If yes, how do I claim compensation from El Al for the flight delay?

No, not at this point.
They will probably merge your flight with another one shortly, assign a new flight number, and you will have no recourse.
The flight delay needs to be over 8 hours for compensation from El Al.
I’m confident you’ll be on your way by then.

Only after 8 hours does El Al attempt to circumvent compensation by claiming the delay is less than 8 hours and then changing the flight code.
This way, even if the delay exceeds 8 hours, they find a loophole to avoid compensation under Israeli law.
Perhaps your travel insurance will cover you?
