ExpertFlyer (EF) in my opinion is worthless when it comes to fare info -
You cannot get published fares from EF without putting in a date for travel, and then will get only fares valid for that travel date. So, there is no way to find all the published fares for a city pair without putting in every possible date.
Not only is it worthless, in my opinion their own website is misleading and inaccurate regarding EF capability - their website says:
Fare Information - Shows all available published fare pricing between a pair of cities for one-way, round-trip and Around The World (RTW) fares
.
This is false - it does not show ALL AVAILABLE PUBLISHED FARE PRICING between a pair of cities - it shows all available published fare pricing FOR A PARTICULAR DATE - and in the case of round-trip, for a date pair.
EF's fares are the equivalent of KVS' Sabre/DotRes method (which I never use).
