How to buy a particular fare?

Guys,

I have a question that some of you may know the answer to.

I would like to buy fare H on Thai for a one way trip SIN to PVG on 26 May. This fare is a higher class relative to what Thai sells currently on it's website. (They sell V or W, which does not accrue PQM on United.)

I can price this fare in ITA software, but I cannot buy it anywhere online, including all the major websites, etc.

Any ideas how to do this?

Thank you,
George

Can UA ticket TG flights? Call them.

Find a good real live human travel agent to do it exactly as you want.

Thanks you your feedback. UA does not have access to TG's full spectrum of fares. They can sell only Y. And I did try that script, it does not work.

Any other ideas? Also, if someone knows a good human agent, I'd appreciate their contacts. Please PM me.

1. Call TG direct
2. Call any decent travel agent (American Express Travel Service, for example). Anyone with a GDS should be able to sell you this.
