Thought I'd throw my 2 cents worth in here. First off, I had a WP phone agent tell me several years ago, that seats come on inventory not 330 days as I had believed, but even earlier. And that's been my experience on several trips. It doesn't always happen, but more often than not they are on before the 330d day. Second, while the WP lister site is helpful, it does NOT for what ever reason match up with what you can find out on the phone. I just booked a spring break trip, got seats on a date many days ahead of when the lister even showed the flights on the date in question. And lastly, I have seen seats on the lister and when I called the rep told me there was nothing. When I asked why I could see them, there was no answer. What did I do? I hung up and called back, got another rep in the "phone roulette" who in fact could see the same seats I did. The whole thing baffles my mind.
