WGA fares sometimes have cut of dates or capacity availability...at which time the fare is "unavailable". Term also applies to flight that are not bookable past or close to the departure time.

Sold out is just that...no more seats on the plane. I do not think they use they term "sold out" on say WGA fares when Anytime and BS fares are still available.
