I would imagine not, I'm sorry to say. Flights was released something like nine months after the Google's ITA acquisition, which included the QPX engine. Seems to me pretty obvious that Flights was built on the IP it got with ITA. They're not going to maintain, let alone enhance, two systems which do essentially the same thing.
