2. While keeping in mind the requirement shown in 1 also to weigh heavily a preference for NH operated flights.

So, in my case the NH902 is option is "best".

I wonder, can I relax the seach to cover a longer time period? It seems that on my printout 12:30 total travel duration is the maximum while the flight I want is 13:00+ hours. Is this a user definable criteria?

As a final option to try and satisfy my need for (in this case #2) the arriving flight into NRT to be on NH could I do a wildcard on the airline choices? I notice you reccomended to me to enter " "BI; NH" in the [Airline(s):] field", can I leave the "BI" portion out to therefore specifcy any airline to start with but ending with NH? Maybe this could be a solution.

Thanks for your time!
