TLVEl Al Fleet & Aircraft Types
53 aircraft types appear on LY routes. This includes aircraft operated by partner airlines, not just El Al metal. Large mixed fleet across the partner network. What you actually sit on varies by route.
El Al Operating Partners
Not every flight with a LY number is actually El Al. These partner airlines operate routes under the LY code. Your booking and flight number say LY, but the plane and crew belong to one of these carriers.
On shorter routes from the hubs, this usually means a regional jet. Smaller plane, 2-2 seating, less overhead bin space. Check the aircraft code when you book. If it says E175, CRJ, or ATR, that's a partner regional jet.
