By way of confirmation of what globaliser says, I note that the United Airlines booking tool via ITN shows 'proper' availability on the relevant flights, unlike Galileo..
It seems then that it is necessary to look at all available sources to make sense of the position. Are there any other sites ?</font>
Depends what you mean by "proper", anyway. The only consistency I can see is that if you can see it on UA/ITN, you can book it on AA. But then there are times when you can book V or N in the UK but UA and AA will only give you L.
The only other site I know of was the Japanese etour tool, which has now been taken off (in its old form) by the travel agent. Pity.
