Fair enough, however I do not see how preventing to enter multiple IATA codes seperated by comma’s in one go -which I used to do and recently found impossible- benefits those travel providers.
This is still possible but now you have to enter one 3-letter code, wait a while for search result, then add another 3-letter code, wait a while, etc.
It was so much quicker and easier and once again I fail to understand how the perfect way it once worked would be a disadvantage to those travel providers.
