So they even allocate availability based on pairs as well then?
Yes, a connecting FLT pair always have the same inventory available on each of its segments. I have never used EF before, but if you ever come across some data that show different inventory on different segments on a connection, you know the source must not reflect how CX / KA sells their FLTs.
