What gives?

For example:

Air Berlin fare basis: WNNPAT on class w. Fare is about $261USD

WNNPAT is a published fare, not necessarily an available one.

Did you also check ExpertFlyer for availability in W class on the days that you are searching? If there's no inventory for W class then you'll never be able to book it.

It would be helpful if you included date so more research could be done.
