There are 14-day advance fare caps though July and no advance ones through the end of June. The 14-day advance purchase ones are relatively reasonable, but if you are buying less than 14 days out, it will can be pretty pricey. The 14-day advance one-way Y912TU fare on DTW-LAX is $249, while a K fare (with 7-day advance requirement) is $395. The no advance Y fare cap (Y912T2) is $449. This is still quite a bit less than full-fare Y/B/M fares you would normally see when the lower buckets are empty. M fares on this route are about $644.
