Maybe its me, but i've noticed alot more El Al metal at JFK for the past few days..

Last week there was a 738 with the usual 744, and today I see both 744 and 777.

Is this due to obvious reasons or is it just seasonal?

Yep, drove right past it...

It was hard stand on Friday if I'm not mistaken along side the 744 near the west wing of Terminal 4.

There was indeed an El Al 737-800 at JFK on the 31st/1st. It was a delivery flight routed BFI-JFK-CDG-TLV.

Saw this landing early in the am on 13L. I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me, as I would normally see an LY 777, 747 at that time of day.

You're not crazy, the El Al 738 has been putzing around the Seattle area for awhile.
I'm irritated I couldn't catch it before the delivery flight.
