Setting the time option to 4pm, for example, only gives me departures on DL 781 at 12:20pm connecting in MSP to DL 5068 at 3:25pm, or DL 789 at 2:30pm connecting in MSP to DL 4763.
What I'm looking to do is leave BOS on DL 690 at 5:45pm, and connect in MSP to DL 5068 at 3:25pm the *next* day. I can price this on ITA but I can't find it in EF to set up an availability alert.
The DL search seems really finnicky with what times and combinations it is showing. I can't even get it to show me any long same-day connections. For example, I can't find the combination to depart BOS on DL963 at 6am or DL 779 at 8am, and connect in MSP to DL 5068 at 3:25pm the same day. It'll only show me the 12:20pm departure.
Yes the DL availability search is a different issue, although we're hoping to fix that soon. Many times the best thing to do for DL is to leave the time at the default of midnight.
