“Who said I keep two days in Eretz Yisrael. I keep one day for over 10 years since moving here.”

El Al has been in E’Y for longer than 10 years, they also dont keep a second day.

“Maybe stop being so nasty?”

Stop being so childish.

“And here’s a news flash for you. We did look at a Hebrew calendar and the ones in Israel don’t have a second day printed on it…”

Which is why el al has flights on this day.

“but we can’t sit in an airport for 8 hours with an 8 week old baby.”

How is his is El Als problem? You should have thought of that before scheduling your flight. Perhaps check into an airport hotel for the day. Again, solutions exist, but it is not El Als responsibility to find one for you.

“I think it is quite problematic for El Al to land in areas where it is still Yom Tov.”

Do any poskim agree with your psak?

“At the very least passengers should be warned about that”

About what? Why should El al remind you it is Yom Tov sheini in c’l? Why should El Al care?

“and they should refund all our money when we need to cancel rather than El Al stealing 300NIS.”

They didnt steal your money. you made a mistake in judgment, whether or not they comply with your request is a matter of their internal customer service policies, not your convoluted “psak”.
