Those are the dates I have been trying, and each time I try those dates on united dot com, I get some sort of error message. I will try again on orbitz.

Can that flight number be sold with an origin in CLE? I thought CO50/51 was EZE-IAH-EWR-FRA and v.v.

Sometimes .bomb just goes kaput. I can sometimes cajole it into working by specifying "Search by Price" (rather than schedule), and/or switching the search parameters to "Economy - Refundable." It also helps to enter flight departure times that correspond to your desired segments, as that will often prompt teh UA system to spit back the correct flights.

That's going away as the IAH-FRA becomes a non-stop and is moving to CLE-FRA.

It is showing CO50 as CLE-FRA with an equipment change in FRA

...only one flight in the day is listing that way ...a 2:45pm departure out of CLE .... all the others come as separate segments CLE-EWR-FRA

So 50/51 is going to be CLE-EWR-FRA, and the nonstop IAH-FRA is 46/47. I just tried to book EZE-FRA and got no option to connect in IAH alone. I realize that the layover would be something like 12.5 hours, but to offer EZE-IAH-CLE-(EWR)-FRA in its place is a bit :rolleyes:.

when you try bookign to NY, it gives you a USH 'search tip' :rolleyes:

Yeah, the layover would be long and you'd also get into FRA two hours later.

By doing EZE-IAH-EWR-FRA you get in to FRA at 9:25am.

Anyone have a thought on a new/different/better way to render a seat map for evaluating the best seat on a plane? I can always just use the same as everyone else, but I'm wondering if anyone has a thought on something that would be better?

Instead of rollover graphics a la Teh Guru, why not make the good or bad seats blink or something? Use something other than popup text boxes to draw attention, whether said attention is positive or negative.

Are you talking about :
XX-0XX-XX
XX-XXX-XX

or a graphic ?

Graphic.

And blink is bad. There's a reason that the HTML tag was deprecated. ;)

I've got the basic infrastructure in place for a seating guide. I need to add the photos in (I've got all of the B6 fleet covered :cool:) still but the infrastructure seems pretty stable. I'll share with the group soon, assuming I can get past this last step.

How about by varying to allow search by different criteria.

Leg room .....map of best, average, bad seats
Recline .....
Viewing
Privacy
For couples....


etc
SO the seats would swith depending upon whic hsearch criteria you used

Definitely a good idea and probably something for v2. I need to get basic functionality in the system first.

Don't know enough about it to debate the point. I guess if a user rolls the mouse over a bad seat and a Klaxon horn goes off, that would be bad too. :D
