I found a flight using ITA and I can't figure out how to book it.


In the fare details section it list:


Fare construction says:


When I go to Continental's website I can't figure out how to find this fare. i tried doing a one way fare from DEN->SJD but didn't see anything listing the stop in ORD. I tried a multi-city search and that also failed.

Any suggestions?

(I'm based in CHI, doing a ski trip to Denver, followed by a trip to SJD. I'd fly straight from DEN->SJD but I want to drop off my skis and change luggage. Booking separate ORD->DEN->ORD; ORD->SJD->ORD flights is more expensive then the whole thing)

Thanks in advance.

Try Orbitz. Always works the best for me for complicated (mileage running) itineraries.

Expedia works also.

ITA provides its services to Orbitz, so if you can find it on ITA, you can almost always find it on Orbitz.

I was playing around and it looks that ITA pricing is way off.
i.e. (exactly the same flights and the same fare class)
ITA (EWR-FRA-DUB-LHR-EWR) dates: 11/24 - 11/29:
Fare 1: Carrier CO WLXNC95N EWR to DUB (rules)
Passenger type ADT, round trip fare, booking code W
Covers EWR-FRA (Coach), FRA-DUB (Coach)
$136.00
Fare 2: Carrier CO SLXNC16S DUB to EWR (rules)
Passenger type ADT, round trip fare, booking code T, S
Covers DUB-LHR (Coach), LHR-EWR (Coach)
$122.50
German Airport Security Tax (DE) $9.70
German Passenger Service Charge (RA) $24.80
US International Departure Tax (US) $16.10
US September 11th Security Fee (AY) $2.50
US Passenger Facility Charge (XF) $4.50
USDA APHIS Fee (XA) $5.00
US Immigration Fee (XY) $7.00
US Customs Fee (YC) $5.50
United Kingdom Passenger Service Charge (UB) $36.10
US International Arrival Tax (US) $16.10
Irish Passenger Charge (UP) $10.80
Irish Air Travel Tax (LQ) $14.00

Subtotal per passenger $411.10

CO:
1 Adults (age 18 to 64) $401.00
Additional Taxes/Fees $152.10
Total Price $553.10

As you can see the difference is 140$.
Can anyone explain where is the difference coming from?

ITA is not showing the CO YQ consistently. It is missing in the fare you posted though it definitely exists.

send it to a travel agent.... I think that's the only way..........on ITA......
