For this domestic business traveler, the display of V and X was the be-all and end-all reason to subscribe to EF.
Isn't this just a case of EF having to do some recoding of its search criteria to respond to the new fare codes? Perhaps make a date-dependent search during the rolling in of the new codes? From a coding perspective this seems obvious, so I don't know what I'm missing.
