For most 1st-tier airlines, Award Availability is not accessible through GDSs.

KVS Tool supports Award Availability for 120+ airlines worldwide (incl. all of 1st-tier carriers across the 3 global alliances).

The current version of the Availability Engine in the Mobile Companion does not provide Aircraft Type data.

Please use the [Timetable] option to see Aircraft Types and/or retrieve the [Seat Map] to see the cabin layout for a specific flight.
