I'm noticing a strange issue with Sabre Availability/FS.

DL1652 shows only 1 Y seat tomorrow when I search ATL-CLT.

[KVS Availability Tool 7.1.3/Diamond - Sabre: Availability/FS/US]
Code:
ATL  Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson Intl GA US [KATL]
CLT  Charlotte Douglas NC US [KCLT]
TUE  22 Jan 2013

Carrier    Flight  From  Depart    To    Arrive    A/C  St  Availability
---------  ------  ----  --------  ----  --------  ---  --  --------------------------------------
DL         1652    ATL   12:05     CLT   13:20     M88      F0 P0 A0 Y1 B0 M0 H0 Q0 K0 L0 U0 T0 E0
DL         1095    ATL   10:45     CLT   12:04     M88      F2 P1 A0 Y9 B6 M5 H4 Q4 K4 L2 U1 T0 E0
DL         2251    ATL   09:20     CLT   10:35     73W      F4 P4 A2 Y9 B8 M6 H4 Q4 K3 L1 U0 T0 E0

If I search for the flight as part of a connecting itinerary, however, I get very different availability. It even differs depending on which flight I choose inbound to ATL.

See the following for example. DL1652 show 4 Y seats in the first two options, and 8 Y seats and 2 F seats in the third option. Again, this is the flight that showed 1 Y seat in the above search.

Any idea why? Also, how will this affect same-day changes on DL? tnx
