Is it so difficult to build an inventory management system that is accurate? Left it for an hour, tried again. Same result. Note that the screen listing all the various fares still shows the individual T+ fares as available for the relevant flights, and your total price still reflects them then adds the taxes, it's just that you can't actually buy a ticket at those prices. Grrrrrrr.
Why did you use such an inflamatory heading when all you needed to do was ask the regulars to help you out...of course an airline like AC is not going to try bait and switch......DUMB DUMB DUMB
