US Airways Dividend Miles (Pre-FlightFund Merger) - 'T' Fare Code help please

Paging all Fare code experts, please!
I'm researching the $198 anti-Southwest fare
PHL-SAN with Fare code TRA14SN. When I look
at ITN.NET in the expert mode there are no
'T' fare codes listed. Next higher price is
$238 which is an 'S' code which is listed.
Is this a non-milage bargain code such as on
priceline.com? I'm booking on USAIR.com

T is a regular deep discount fare basis. You can find a summary of all fare codes in this thread (http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/Forum51/HTML/004215.html). If you go to the US Airways web site and seach by price, you can click on the little i next to the price and see the "complete" set of rules.

This particular fare is a pretty typical 14 day advance purchase, non-refundable fare.

The first day I could find TRA14SN is for May 9th and it earns miles like any other fare.

FIRST TRAVEL - 9MAY04 TRAVEL COMPLETE - 7AUG04

Travel starts May 9th so you won't be able to find any qualifying dates unless you are searching within that date range.

Basically I'm waiting for the 12:40 SAN-PHL
leg to reappear which was there 12 hours ago.
I've seen it come and go a number of times
in last several days and waiting for then to
retweek the inventory and looking on itn.net
to check inventory.The 3:15 am PHL-San recently disappeared for 2 days and returned today.

I've noted on itn.net that the nonstops don't
have the 'T' code listed (including the redeye nonstop which is now available at USAIR.com at the present time, as well as the 12:40 return nonstop that I'm waiting to book) while the connecting codeshare flights do. However the 11:55am-10:07pm codeshare via
ord have t4 for both legs,but also dissapeared from the USAIR.com choices early
this AM. This would be my alternate choice
to the 12:40pm nonstop return.

Have you tried usair.com ?

More bonus miles and $5 cheaper, as long as the flights you want are available.

Your dates are around the Memorial Day holiday. In my opinon, fares are bound to go up, not down.
