You need to select an actual set of flights. Availability doesn't show up on the overall list of flights.

Maybe KVS should write a module to screen scrape from the ITA. Just another method to find availability easily.

Checked for myself; it shows up on IE9, but not on Chrome.

OTOH, resticting the search to *A only works for me on Chrome.

Ah, well.

At least I'm seeing it.

Best regards,

Would you tell me how you restrict the search to Star Alliance on ITA? I am on Safari and have never seen the option. Thank you.

Enter

/alliance star-alliance

in the advanced routing codes box.

Unfortunately, as I said, this doesn't work work for me in IE9, only in Chrome. I haven't tried it in Safari, so YMMV.

Ah ha..... You must be seeing my screen

You are right, this works with Chrome (which is the only browser I use) and *A (well I was searching "ua,co" one time and "/alliance star-alliance" the other time)

thanks for pointing that out....
