This sounds like a great tool, but 90% of my travel is not on AA. Can I see award availability on US, UA and *A partners?

I can answer that. I finally bit the bullet and signed up for a month and I found that the availability part is for pretty much any airline, and you can specify a specific class to search for like smile67's tool. Now weather the airline makes all the classes available or not is a different matter. The seat maps work for just about everything I tried too (AA, UA, DL, CO, BA, US....)

They say on the site that they support 100+ airlines, so it can't just be AA. I also did some fare searches and it came back with all the airlines I new of that flew the route. Seems pretty comprehensive in that respect.

Some of my ITN's don't come up but some do. I emailed the support about it and I got a response saying that the GDS will either have it or not and there isn't much more they can do about it. And the ITN has to be public as well.

Hope that helps.
