I like the new "enhancement". I have been harping for the ability to get a price on any fare code (as NWA.COM has had for a while now). I am one of those people who have some flexibility in the price I pay and would be willing to pay a little more to be higher on the upgrade food chain.

Ideally, I could put in a city pair, like PHL-MSY, and dates, and get a listing of all fare codes and fares for each on 1 page. Until that happens, I can work with this system.

I currently hold a V ticket PHL-IAH-MSY and return 3/16-3/18 which I bought about a week ago for $389. I tried the new system for all of the fares B thru L and got:

B 505
V 389
U 513
Q 349
I N/A
S N/A
W N/A
T 219
X N/A
L N/A

I am not too concerned about the N/A's since I realize that CO may choose to offer a low fare on any of their low fare categories and also the fact that some fare categories may have special requirements like Saturday night stays. The one anomaly that stands out in the above sample is the U fare at 513. Since U is lower on the fare chain, one might expect it to be higher that Q, but lower than V. It's not.
Anyhow, this is a great step in the right direction.
Thank you

The U fare is not directly marketed in PHL-MSY and ends up being the combination of PHL-IAH ($318) and IAH-MSY ($164) before tax.

Pananna or other CO lurkers (you know who you are)

Could you guys bring back the white/manila colorings that differentiated flights and routing options? I like the new layout but sometimes it is a bit hard to keep track of the different options.

If I could request an *enhancement*, don't cringe guys,
but it would be nice to be able to get a list of CO's fares for a particular routing.

So that way I can see how much it would cost to 'buy up' to a particular fare class on a flight.
(For instance, it would have been nice to know which cities were included in this summer BF sale) The travelocity fare listing only lists like 25 or so, and there are over 25 fares below the Z fare for certain markets, so that would be grrrreat.

The thing I'd like to see (avoiding using the "e" word) would be the resurrection of Eaasy Sabre.
