Great suggestion! ^

Now, if only AA could finally post their fares, FC will get a lot of commission from me

Yeah, and unless I'm really missing something, AA hasn't yet.

It is NOT the next day, it is same day. So if it was 12:00am the 12th, that would be tonight at 12. I lost a reservation like that before so be careful.

That's what I wanted to make sure of...I read it as only applying through tonight...so it will fall off in just a few hours.

I'm seeing this more and more on Travelocity now, I didn't see that at all less than an hour ago but most days I'm selecting for IAD-LAX is showing this..

Can anyone help me turn this into a JFK-LAS run? I tried ual.com but even the flight stopping in LAX connecting to LAS is over $400. JFK-LAX came up $129 all-in.
