62—THE JEWISH NEWS
Matzos in the Sky
Friday, March 2'7, 1953

(Copyright. 1953, Jewish Telegraphic Agency, Inc.)
The catering officers of El Al
Israel Airlines have a fond re-
gard for the holiday of Passover.
For like the Hebrew slaves whose
exodus to freedom the holiday
celebrates, they work harder
just before Passover than at any

other time of the year.
Preparing special dishes and
a especial menu is not a simple
matter even in the kitchen of
your own home. On the trans-
atlantic lines of an airline, it
can turn into a major problem
in logistics. But that is exactly

what the Ei Al catering officers
are doing. During Passover
passengers and crew alike on all
El Al aircraft, in the skies above
a dozen countries on four con-
tinents, will be eating tradition-
al holiday fare, from matzos
and wine to knaydlach and nuts.
The Passover menu is on;y
one of the many unusual prob-
lems with which El Al has had
to cope. Hitherto, El Al has
flown two transatlantic flights
a week, but this is being in-
creased on April 19 to three per
week. With any other line this
would mean merely a technical
revision of schedules. El Al
faces a difficulty which con-
fronts no other line—the ques-
tion of flying on Saturday, the
Jewish Sabbath.
The third flight will take off
on Friday afternoons before
the Sabbath sets in, and will
end on Saturday nights after
the appearance of three stars,
an arrangement which permits
even the most devout to make
the flight.
An El Al flight has a way of
engendering an atmosphere of
what is known in Yiddish as
"haymishkeit," a pervasive
friendliness which is apparent
within a few minutes after the
plane takes off. An American'
woman who flew an El Al plane .
recently wrote to the airline
thanking it for making her trip
so comfortable. She added:
"El Al is not the biggest or
smallest or oldest or youngest
airline in the world. But my
flight convinced me that it is
the happiest line flying."
When an Israel citizen sees
an El Al aircraft in the sky
and says, "That's our plane,"
he is speaking the literal
truth. 'The people . of Israel
are a major partner in the
company. Israel Airlines
means just what it says. The
line is the joint venture of
the whole nation, represented
by the registered owners : the
government, the Jewish Agen-
cy, the Zim Navigation Com-
pany and the Histadrut.
Again and again, El Al has
stepped in—or rather flown in
—to act as a Good Samaritan
in an emergency. A few hours
after the news reached Israel
of the tidal wave and flood in
Holland in February, an El Al
Constellation was being load-
ed with a mercy cargo of
10,000 items of clothing for the
stricken Dutch, the gift of the
Jewish Agency.
, In August, 1951, an ama-
teur radio operator in New
p an S. 0. S.
York picked ti
from Portugal calling for vari-
da,se, a rare drug needed for a
little girl with polio. Within
hours, an El Al Constellation was
flying across the Atlantic with
the precious life-saver. In 1952,
an Israeli boy suffered a rare
eye disease requiring surgery in
Switzerland. That same day, El
Al craft was flying him to the
surgeon who could save his sight.
In June, 1950, a group of Amer-
ican students were stranded in
Luxemburg by the outbreak of
war in Korea. El Al flew them
home, and did the same later in
the year with a party of Amer-
ican Catholic pilgrims in Rome
for the Holy Year celebrations
when they learned that their
scheduled aircraft had been di-
verted to Korea.
