My latest gripe!

Do a search on a US-Europe fare and it comes up as $930. United.com is nice and offers alternatives for $625. Ok, I like that price a lot better, so I select the alternative... "error... no longer available"... ok, next one... same result. Finally I find one that works, great -- $626 and books me in W class all the way through. When I go to book: "illegal connection" (only 50 minutes between FRA-IAD and IAD-DEN). Argh!!

There's no way to "force" it take a later IAD-DEN flight, even if available with W, at that fare. Impossibly annoying.
