You are perfectly right. Not all OTAs require to pass the booking class - those should find the cheaper price on their own. I don't see any workaround for this. Due to the latest changes it would be possible of course.. but you would need to modify the booking class, the cabin and the used fare as well.

This happened several times before. Seems to be working again. @all Be sure to copy the link without "\" at the end.
--------------------

Updated the script doing some bugfixes and adding new features:
Introduced WhereToCredit ( http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/trave...redit-com.html ). Thinking about the possibilities - this might be awesome some day (processing the whole trip for example). For now it will give a good overview on what kind of "fare" you are looking at.

Additionally there is a new feature i want to explain in detail since it involves "background" requests:
The script is now able to resolve the distances for each leg/segment (ITA is only showing complete distance). This is done with a request passing the itin (partially) to farefreaks.com and receiving the calculated distances for each airport combination, based on data provided by OurAirports.com. If your routing is JFK-BOS outbound and BOS-JFK inbound - it will just ask for "JFK-BOS" well knowing BOS-JFK is the same distance. :-) To reduce these requests furthermore the script is storing the results in a global var. So unless you reload the page, this route won't be calculated again. The distances will be added to the current itinerary making it available to all functions. This is the only difference between this method and clicking on the GCM link. It would be possible to add information like domestic/international or any other stuff you might think of.. maybe this will give us new opportunities.

As always: You are able to control how this script should behave and look like, completely able to disable functionalities you don't like/need.
