AA's SFO-JFK Discount Premium Fares (D/I/P) a Mess!
While booking travel for next year, pricing the "Discounted Business" tickets that are YUP's have been a mess!
There's a P fare, I fare, A fare, and two D fares....... YUPPZN AA P One-Way 649.00 (USD) Y3CUP7ZN AA D One-Way 709.00 (USD) Y3CUPMZ AA I One-Way 959.00 (USD) YUPMZ AA A One-Way 959.00 (USD) Y263CUP AA D One-Way 1199.00 (USD) I also have no idea on how to get the "P" fares on the non stops, since although there's no restriction on the two class non-stops using this fare, the "P" inventory is not offered (i.e. not because of no availability, but a P inventory does not even exist on the flight availability) on any two-class planes (763s). The "P" bucket is offered on all three-class planes (762s) but the fare specifically prohibits booking these flights (obviously). For a typical day, the availability is as follows: AA 24 0 SFO 01/11/06 07:50AM JFK 01/11/06 04:09PM 763 B F7 A0 Y7 B7 H7 K7 M7 L7 W7 V7 G7 S7 N7 Q1 O0 AA 16 0 SFO 01/11/06 12:00PM JFK 01/11/06 08:23PM 762 L F3 A0 P3 J7 D1 I0 Y7 B7 H7 K7 M7 L7 W7 V7 G7 S7 N4 Q0 O0 AA 178 0 SFO 01/11/06 01:45PM JFK 01/11/06 10:06PM 763 L F7 A0 Y7 B7 H7 K7 M7 L7 W7 V7 G7 S7 N7 Q7 O7 AA 20 0 SFO 01/11/06 04:00PM JFK 01/12/06 12:17AM 762 D F0 A0 P0 J4 D0 I0 Y7 B7 H7 K7 M7 L7 W7 V7 G7 S7 N7 Q7 O0 AA 18 0 SFO 01/11/06 10:00PM JFK 01/12/06 06:15AM 762 S F0 A0 P0 J7 D0 I0 Y7 B7 H7 K7 M7 L7 W7 V7 G7 S7 N7 Q4 O0 So, the problem seems to have been about the same as before.....there's a published fare, but no inventory. There's inventory on some flights, but the fare prohibits using them...... I booked the "D" fare on 3-class in the end....probably will upgrade to true F if an expiring VIP comes my way from a colleague or burn 15K miles..... :D |
