Which to choose ??
 

We will be travelling to Israel from Budapest after completing a Viking River Cruise. Our plans are to spend 1 week in Israel and then fly to Paris for 6 days before returning to the USA.

The date we have for Tel-Aviv > Paris is April 19th (a Saturday). In researching Kayak and Fly.com there are 3 choices : Ukraine Intl Airlines at $244 p/p, Aegean Airlines at $294 and Turkish at $422. All have 1 stop somewhere. Time duration is similar.

We have flown Aegean in the past and are comfortable flying them. Have no idea as to the quality of Ukraine Intl or Turkish Air.

Can anyone provide comments on these two airlines ?? Would not mind saving $100 given flight schedules are almost identical.

I'd spend 1 less day in Israel, then fly non-stop on Air France on 18 Apr for about the same price as your lower prices on Aegean or Ukranian.

Thanks for the reply but the cheapest AF ticket from Tel Aviv to CDG I see on the 18th is $665.00. What site are you finding this on ??

airfrance.com - 187€ for either the 14:05 or 17:35 departure.

sorry - the web site is airfrance.us or airfrance.fr (not airfrance.com) - USD price is $252

Found it. Thank you very much for your help.

Air France is the easy winner in this case. That being said I was very pleasantly surprised by Ukraine.

We experienced the same pleasant surprise with Turkish..Econ. seats, choice of 2 meal menu, wine, excellent attendants, English announcements and all this from Frankfurt..Would not turn down a trip with them if I had one coming up. Never did like AF but that is a personal dislike I'm sure.
