$795 DFW-AUS one way Sep (& other problems)- 3 Mar schedule change
Been looking at DFW-AUS flights in September, and o/w clocks in at a whopping $795 
FC $190. WOW.
Maybe related to the schedule changes that have been posted (about), but just amazing. r/t seems to be pricing as yesterday, but o/w (yesterday $88) ....

Looking at Expertflyer for September 2018, the only economy inventory available now for all flights DFW-AUS during September is Y and B, all other inventory is zeroed out. You'll have to wait for the lower price inventory to become available for you to see the lower priced one-way fares.

I had a change on a PIT-JFK flight, and showing no seats available to choose. So I went to make a booking on that flight (which showed plenty of seats) and $1600 fully flexible was all they had, yesterday.
It's down to $450 today.
So yes, I think it was, and check again.

Yes, I noticed similar ridiculous fares yesterday, after the schedule change. So, yes, the schedule change did affect the fares. In some markets, the Y fare was three times as much as the lowest F fare.
