Delta Air Lines and Israel's national carrier El Al have announced a strategic partnership that will offer better connections for passengers flying between the U.S. and Israel. The partnership involves codeshare and frequent flyer benefits on both airlines. This includes the ability to earn and redeem miles.

 

Passengers flying on Delta or El Al routes will be able to check in for their entire journey at one airport. This includes receiving boarding passes for all flights and having bags checked in until they reach their final destination.
