Review of El Al Israel Airlines flight from Munich to Tel Aviv in Business

Hello and welcome to this flight to Tel Aviv.
At Munich all flights to Israel depart from a special high security terminal called hall F.
It is located behind the Hilton Munich Airport Hotel.
I arrived at the airport 3 hours before departure and after some very intense and long security interviews and checks finally arrived in the small waiting area where a small bar and duty free shop is everything available for passengers to kill the waiting time.

As there also exists no special premium lounge I was given a voucher at the Business Class check in counter worth 12 EUR to spend at the regular bar.
I used the voucher to start the day with a cup of tea and a pretzel.

Boarding to our Boeing 737-800 was on a remote position to which we were shuttled by bus on time.
The cabin crew offered a friendly welcome and I took my very comfortable window seat.
The seat is very comfortale and pitch is fine as well - so a perfect cabin for our medium range flight of 3 hrs 20 minutes today.
A big pillow and a nice blanket were already placed on each seat.

The cabin crew offered newspapers and magazines before they distributed a very nice amenity kit in the form of this metal box.
It contained socks, tooth brush and eye shades.

After this every Business Class passenger received a small personal bottle of water.
Also a welcome drink of either orange juice or water was distributed once Boarding was completed.

After take off the two cabin crew members responsible for the full Business Class cabin today started their service with distributing hot towels.

Afterwards window shades should be closed for a better viewing of the entertainment program on the overhead screens.
It showed movies, tv shows etc. and a headset was preplaced in the seat pocket.
Then menus were distributed. However they have been recollected before I could take a picture.
Three warm main dishes were on offer from which I decided for salmon.
Afterwards each passenger received an aperitif - I decided for a Gin Tonic and some nuts.
The whole service in Business Class was done completely without any trolley. Instead each drink was delivered individually on a silver tray.
Meals were also served to you by hand from the galley.

Once the tables have been laid with a white table cloth the main tray including starter and main dish was served.

The only laydown was that drinks took quite long to be served once you had your meal.
Warm bread that tasted great was also offered from a basket two times.
After the main meal trays had been cleared, each passenger was presented a choice of either cake or fruits on a tray in front of you.
I decided for the cake and had a great tasting freshly brewed mint tea with it.

After everything had been cleared I enjoyed the rest of the flight reading.

The cabin crew regularly passed through the cabin to check if you have some more wishes.
Soon we started our descend and had some nice views of Tel Aviv and its beaches before touching down safely.
Before landing mint bonbons were distributed to finish the service.

Thanks a lot for reading,
