Where does the KVS tool get its data and is KVS authorized to provide this data in the manner it is presented?

The tool is known to access a variety of web sites, many in a manner that is not authorized. Please see the next section of this Wiki for a list of sites believed to be accessed and their data access policies (where known).

Additionally, under some conditions the tool appears to access sites via a KVS-operated back end. This means that the tool is not just a 'web browser' that runs via a user's machine. No detailed public information is available about how this works or whether any of this back-end access is authorized.

ExpertFlyer currently supports the viewing of YY fares. To see them, just specify YY as one of the airlines in the fare search. This will show the YY fares as well as any other airlines fares that you specify. Specifying no airline will show all applicable airline fares, but not YY fares.

What am i doing wrong? I choose AMADEUS: AWARDS/ONEWORLD and do LHR-JFK on 08Apr08 for 1 seat. I enter my FF number and password.

I get all the flight details etc, but the "availability" is blank on all say 20 rows.

Also I am told that DXB or BAH are not valid origins.

P.S It works fine for StarAlliance

In V2.0.3, you can now search for award availability ex-DXB (and many other previously unsupported airports) -- see above.

After downloading 3.0.2, "Check for Updates" tries to get me to download "an updated version (3.0.1)"

I'm only seing routing rules for user-entered fare codes, not the fare rules. If you can't get the full fare rules, the routing display has enough fare fules in them that it's still very helpful. Overall, a great enhancement!

To get fare rules for user-entered fares, you need to use the Fares/ZUJ Method.

Looking at DL/TRA14N for ANC-CLT using ZUJ method, fare rules tells me

[TRANSFERS]
2 TRANSFERS PERMITTED IN EACH DIRECTION ANY COMBINATION OF THE FOLLOWING
- 2 ONLINE ON DL. FARE BREAK AND EMBEDDED SURFACE SECTORS NOT PERMITTED
ON THE FARE COMPONENT.
but routing rules tells me

TRANSFERS - NOT PERMITTED
Now, what makes this even weirder is that I can price this fare code as 1/18 ANC-SEA-ATL-CLT and 1/30 CLT-ATL-SEA-ANC on DL.com (suggesting transfers are in fact permitted)--but the fare rules overview says transfers not permitted, while the full fare rules says two transfers each way.

So maybe this isn't a bug on your end after all
Still makes no sense though.

Mistakes in fares (and the associated rules) aren't exactly unknown to the human kind . Obviously, transfers are permitted (and required), as per the routing rules:

There may be a glitch with sabre/dotres (3.0.2 version).

Trying to get the economy vs business vs first class fares on Jet Airways (ie YYZ-DEL, or between DEL-SIN), the list of fares for business or first class are the same that are displayed for economy.

Trying this for TG, at least for DEL-SIN, the problem also arises.
