El Al's Frequent Flyer Club is launching a special offer for its FLY CARD credit card holders. New customers and existing customers switching from the old CAL FLY CARD to the new Isracard FLY CARD will receive a complimentary flight ticket to various El Al and Sun D'Or destinations, provided they meet the promotion's terms. This campaign is timed as the old CAL-issued FLY CARDs will cease accumulating points and diamonds for the El Al Frequent Flyer Club starting January 1, 2027. Customers who have not yet transitioned to the new Isracard FLY CARD have a final opportunity this year to join the promotion, earn a free ticket, and continue accumulating points and benefits into 2027.
The promotion runs from November 1 to December 31, 2026. To qualify for the free ticket, participants must join the new Isracard FLY CARD, meet eligibility criteria, and make cumulative purchases totaling NIS 10,000 by March 31, 2027. The complimentary tickets are valid for flights between January 1-March 31, 2027, November 1-December 10, 2027, and January 1-February 28, 2028, subject to terms and availability. Destinations include Athens, Barcelona, Budapest, Paris, Rome, Madrid, Munich, Milan, Bucharest, Prague, Sofia, Vienna, Zurich, Larnaca, Paphos, Tbilisi, Lyon, Verona, Krakow, and Tirana.
Beyond the sign-up bonus, new FLY CARD holders will enjoy ongoing benefits such as an annual 1+1 flight ticket offer to select destinations, 50% off award flights on Tuesdays, up to a 20% bonus on flight points depending on card type, and diamond accumulation for premium cardholders to reach higher tiers in the Frequent Flyer Club.
Moshe Morgenstern, CEO of the Frequent Flyer Club and FLY CARD, stated that hundreds of thousands have already joined the new card. He emphasized that this year-end promotion is a crucial chance for those still holding the old CAL cards to transition, continue earning benefits, and get closer to their next vacation with a free flight ticket.
