P2 R0 on leg 1 and J1 ... P0 R0 on leg 2. I wonder whether this is due to the Amadeus transition.
Pretty sure I referenced multiple carriers above!

"This is the case if both segments are AC. They will show separately if you are on another carrier for the 2nd segment."

I have noted in the past that married pairs do not always show the same availability for each segment (ie M0 when searched together, but M1 for each segment when searched individually.) This was beneficial when using a UFP, but I am not sure if this discrepancy has been fixed.
