Searching for upgrade inventory/fare buckets

I see many threads referencing XF/NF and XC/NC inventory but haven't been able to figure out how to do that on .bomb. Can someone please enlighten me? Thanks.

To see the availability in those buckets, you'll need to do a dummy award booking once you've logged into your .bomb with your MP account and set your profile to "Advanced." Then, when you pull up the flights, in the details you'll see all the fare buckets (e.g. F9 A9 ... NF2, etc.) which will show you upgrade and award inventory space. NF/NC are seats in F and C, respectively, while XF/XC are upgrades.
