From Yesterdays Yediot, here is how Israel’s leaders are doing with their ElAl miles (as of 2005):
President Shimon Peres – 6250 (thats only 73/year)
Olmert – (the envelope, please….) – 4788 points
Bibi – 660 points (don’t you get points for marrying a stewardess?)
Shaul Mofaz – 0 points
Zohar Zisapel – 1618 points
Why should my loyal TLV2JFK readers care?
1. Kind of scary that your personal data gets into Yediot
2. These guys all managed to get Platinum or Gold level membership, which gets all kind of nice things. Most of us need to fly almost every week to get to that level. Mofaz got it on ZERO points. So, there is some way to bully ElAl into getting (or keeping) Elite status. Let us know when you find out how.
