EL AL cabins and aircraft

Route data · Jul 2026

Source: Originfacts route-network dataset, built from TravelPayouts route data (updated 2026-07). Not verified by hand.

Cabin names and seat details are not yet verified for EL AL. What the route dataset does record is which aircraft types have appeared on its routes:

  • Airbus A320
  • Airbus A330-300
  • Airbus A340-300
  • Boeing 737
  • Boeing 737-700
  • Boeing 737-800
  • Boeing 747-400
  • Boeing 757
  • Boeing 767-200
  • Boeing 767-300
  • Boeing 777-200ER

Seat pitch is a property of the aircraft cabin rather than of the airline, so a single figure for this carrier’s legroom would be misleading. Pitch publishes per aircraft type once each figure is verified.

A record of what has flown, not a current fleet

The route dataset accumulates equipment over time and is not a fleet register: it can name types EL AL has retired, miss recent additions, and it covers only flights sold under LY. Seat pitch and cabin configuration are not verified for this carrier.

If your EL AL flight is delayed or cancelled

Not yet verified

Which delay and cancellation regime applies depends on where each flight departs. The mapping has not been verified for this carrier yet.

Sources and verification

Baggage, fare, check-in, disruption and contact figures are published only when they are read from EL AL’s own pages or a named regulator, and each one shows the page and the date it was checked. Where sources disagree we show both and publish neither. Route and destination figures come from the Originfacts route dataset and show its date instead; they are not verified by hand.
