Yeah, there is either something wrong, or an unannounced deval.
Last week I booked SAN-JFK-HEL-ARN in J for 70k. Now, SAN-DFW-HEL is 110k (AA shows it available for 57.5k). DFW-HEL is 70k and SAN-DFW-HEL-ARN is 110k. So, the system is now charging 40k more for less distance. It seems to be charging extra for connections that it previously did not charge.

Even using the classic view search trick seems to return the higher prices.
