I am a travel agent in New York who deals mostly with Shomer Shabbat / Religious passengers on a daily basis for the past 28 years in New York and 48 years in the industry. I am happy that finally someone said something nice about this delay or if you want to call it incident. First of all I don’t think that no one has the right to blame either side, not El Al or the Shomrei Shabbat passengers for behaving in one way or another.

Yes, the fault does lie with the airlines, as they should’ve rather put the Religious guests up over Shabbos in hotels in NY, & rescheduled their flights for Motzei Shabbos. But causing a Chillul Hashem in front of Non-Religious Yidden is really unacceptable behavior.
