I have a new booking engine that we have to use for business trips. My company NEVER allowed FC tickets (the trip would be red flagged and denied)... Hoever, their ne policy now allows FC trips over 1,000 miles. To boot, NWA is a prefered carrier, which is a plus in my book!

Here is my question... and documentation...

July 19 PHX-DTW-CLT
NW 0426 / P9 F8 Y9 B9 M7 H0 Q0 V0 L0 T0 K0
NW 1570 / P9 F9 Y9 B9 M7 H0 Q0 V0 L0 T0 K0

July 21 CLT-MSP-PHX
NW 1669 / P9 F9 Y9 B9 M9 H9 Q0 V0 L0 T0 K0
NW 0113 / P9 F9 Y9 B9 M9 H9 Q9 V9 L1 T0 K0

Why when I pick these exact flights rather thru my booking engine or NWA.com, do they pull all FC flights when it shows room in coach? Like I mentioned I can use FC, but too I need to mention unless I need these times and prove, then no problem... BUT an additional warning comes up stating that CO has fares in the area of $430RT when this FC will cost $781 (w/corp discount).

I would rather take the coach for a cheaper price and get UG to FC as I have 39 / 39 flights to date this year... these are not real high Elite routes... so I still have a good chance.

Thanks to anyone who can let me know what to do or figure this out.

Thanks!
