Finding roughly 14% off on other BS fares.

A WGA fare Aug 9 MDW-SDF is $186 vs. $204. The only discount of the day. But it routes through DEN, total over 6 hours! That is just under 9% off.

Wife's company's website shows this:

"15% Discount on Business Select Fares "K"
14% Discount on Anytime Fares "Y"
10% Discount on Select Public Wanna Get Away Fares (0-7 days advance purchase only)
Select fares include the following codes: L, B, Q, H, W, R, O, M, S, N, or T
0% Discount on Public Wanna Get Away Fares (8 days and above advance purchase)"

So the discounts I am seeing are not quite what they have published, as I got a discount offered on a flight 2 months from now.

Maybe the fact that I am seeing slightly less of a discount has something to do with it not applying to the Security Fee or similar.

Relatively few WGA fares seem to be showing up. But if available, they appear automatically, without having to search Fare Class/Code/whatever.
Did you get that discount without a promotion code?
