Correct, BE I meant Basic Economy. Google Flights will generally show you Basic Economy fares but you get the hang of about how much more standard economy fares are pretty easily and look for those. If my target price was $125 then I was looking for GF fares around $100 or slightly under. It's not a 100% guarantee, but it's fairly close in a lot of markets. My $205 fare was slightly more challenging but didn't take me more than 10 mins of trial and error to find one.
