I have always wondered what these types of routings are, and how to maximize their effectivness to give me the most miles. I found a fare on nwa.com for a trip from WAS-FRA and these are a snippet of the fare rules. If you could advise on what all the various terminology is and what it means, that would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. My dates are flexible as well.
