Here is an option for the 10th. it is not quite as good and involves a longer layover in PDX and you will not get home until the morning of the 11th.

Alternatively here are some calendar options from OMA to either PDX, BOS, LAX with connection through ATL.

This one won't work with being on the first one you posted to PDX early on the 11th. I can't be on 2 planes at once. What is the tool above you are using?

Sorry, had misunderstood you. Thought you couldn’t make the flight on the 11th.. I’ll take a look to see if there are any other options.

$255.50 is basic economy. The lower fare must have sold out.

Only T bucket is left open (1 seat) on the outbound flights which means the lowest E fare available will be one with an underlying T fare code (TA7NA0BA).

So E fare is lower than T - or are they the same?

E is lower than T, but DL has multiple E fares corresponding to T, X, and V main cabin fares. The underlying main cabin fare type for an E fare is identified by the first character in the fare code. The second to last character in the fare code distinguishes the E fare from main cabin fares (E fares have the letter 'B' here for Basic Economy). You need to look at the fare rules to see the fare code and which E fare you are getting. In pricing a flight, the system looks at both E bucket (to see if E fare should be offered at all) as well as the T, X, and V buckets to identify which E fare to select.
