Hi headinclouds, I don't have a logical explanation other than this is the furthest out Aeroflot will allow us to have access to. Sometimes this has to do with the likelihood of schedule changes. It's very possible that they have a different availability access agreement set up with Delta contractually.

You may notice that the Aeroflot availability limitation was not in all markets. For example, we currently don't have access to Aeroflot inventory (of any kind) for international markets (e.g. from JFK to SVO) after 29-Mar 2008, but we do have access to intra-Russia inventory (e.g. SVO to OVB) well into Summer 2008.
