El Al Is Planning Its Biggest Summer Ever Across the Atlantic

El Al has announced a record summer 2027 schedule to the Americas, with about 35,000 seats a week, according to Aviation Week’s route roundup. The Bulkhead Seat’s weekly review puts the figure at 63 weekly flights.

The headline addition is San Francisco, which the airline plans to serve three times a week in summer for the first time. It joins an existing North American network that already looks to peak-season demand.

For travelers booking early, schedule announcements like this tend to mean more choice on peak summer dates, though fares and exact times are set at booking. Seasonal flying also makes the details matter, with some routes operating only in the warmest months.

The announcement is a plan, not a timetable. Schedules for travel in summer 2027 remain subject to change, so book with flexibility and check the airline’s site for confirmed dates.
