You should check them out both but they won't work together (they may work even if you are paying via a different credit card) before you buy!

Max with AIG has these free stuff for 14 days:

• 2nd Child gets free travel insurance
• Covering Delayed flights
• Covering Canceled flights
• Additional Baggage Loss or Theft Coverage
• Additional Baggage Loss or Theft Coverage
• Continued Treatment in Israel Due to an Accident
• Returning Children to Israel

and Isracard with AIG has these free stuff for 14 days:

• Covering Delayed flights
• Returning Children to Israel
• Continued Treatment in Israel Due to an Accident
• Additional Rescue and Rescue Coverage

• Additional Extreme Sports Coverage

Both plans allow "add-ons" but the price may depend on length of time and other variables which is why you should try both and see which one makes the most sense for your trip!

I have used them in the past and was able to cancel a plan without any fees ahead of a canceled trip during the pandemic... since then I was able to use their insurance a few times but thankfully never had any issues and never needed to submit a claim!

For comparison, Phoenix Group has a policy as follows if you use a discount provided by ElAl. You need to be a Matmid Member (free to join) or have their FlyCard

With their discount, the base prices are quite similar
