In the inventory line, are there duplicates. For example, does something like Y4 B3 mean that:

1) there are 4 total seats for sale, and that up to 3 can be sold as B's; or

1 is the correct answer. That is why you'll never see an entry such as Y4B7...

Also note that the system won't ever show more than 7 seats available in coach in any fare class (some systems/airlines may show 9, I think).
