Last month, El Al Israel airlines celebrated the 50th anniversary of the first nonstop flight from New York to Tel Aviv, which took place on June 15, 1961. The maiden flight established three world records: the first nonstop service between New York and Tel Aviv; the fastest flight between the two cities (9 hours, 33 minutes); and the longest nonstop commercial flight to date at a distance of 5,760 miles.

Dear JTI,
Harold and I want to thank you again for our wonderful trip to Israel.
As Christians, it meant much to us to see this Holy Land, but it was also meaningful to see other cultures and beliefs. We will never forget the sights and sounds, the tastes and smells.
The last four nights I have dreamed that I was still there [in Israel], so you can see, it really made an impression.
