I am needing to travel to Florida in mid-December (before Christmas rush hits), the flight I want currently has the following availability
J9 C9 D9 Z6 P4 Y9 B9 M9 E9 U9 H9 Q9 V9 W9 S9 T9 L9 K9 G9 N9 (another flight that day is zeroed out in L K and G)

UA is only selling S fares on this route as their T, L, and K fares are currently only filed through 11/16/21 (no G fares are filed on the route).

So this is the issue I am running into, should I wait to see if UA files L K and G fares on this route and does anyone know where I can find data on historical filed fares?

-As a final data point, UA hasn't filed any discount fares past November, for example in February I can usually find a K fare if I am flexible but nothing filed for Feb yet.
December might be high period for Florida, but November certainly isn't. I suspect UA just doesn't want to sell discount inventory that far out given the amount of schedule uncertainty remaining.
