I concur, knope. Saturday departures show all Coach fare classes available, in both directions, generally, except G and X. Other days of the week show only available seats in Y and W in Coach, and all classes in BC. Those two Coach classes are generally higher than BC fares. Southwest also has nonstops on the route; perhaps the AirTran service is being transitioned over to WN, except on Saturdays. The next schedule extension is due within a couple of weeks. That might also include some changes to explain what's happening with the July CMH-FLL nonstops.
It sure looks like there is something going on with some of the FLL flights on FL - not just the CMH service. The fares for some flight numbers are crazy high - even for BC fares, when no BC seats have even been booked on those flights. The dates are not peak travel times, either.
