Unusual fare sequence...
Hi,
I was working on my flight bookings for the coming months when I met this very unusual fare sequence with one of my AF flights:
P6 F9 R9 A9
Since it is a 77W operated flight (P8 max), how is it possible to have F9 A9? Moreover, what is this R bucket?
It is not a major issue since I only need 1 seat, but being curious by nature…
Thanks!

Availability on non amadeus system is not 100% matching real availability available on amadeus/AF systems. I saw several flights with P9 (and not likely to get the A380, such as LAX PPT 31DEC), sometimes also with M9 (M will replace E) whereas it was actually M0 (and the AF agent told me that only 2M seats had been booked).

Come on. FTP is simply trying to help you as he has done for many other op. In doing so FTP loses valuable time but provides valuable advice. But he/she needs more info to do so.
