yet another ITN question...
first of all, thanks everyone for their help with these questions...
here's my odd question of the day: when I plug in my routes ITN shows "As low as 63.50 USD for this leg (based on round-trip and 14-day advance-purchase)" but the lowest published fare for the route is $202 for any dates.
I would be glad to purchase at $130 + fees, etc, but that fare doesn't exist as I see it. ITN and nwa.com price it out at $222 r/t.
FYI the city pair is EWR/VPS on NW.
Is this an ITN glitch, or do you think there is some $127 r/t fare somewhere that I am not finding... also FWIW it looks like these flights are WIDE OPEN: P9 F9 Y9 B9 M9 H9 Q9 V9 K9.

My initial reaction based on what you show is that it is a NW flight based on the P9 F9.
I don't know all the airline codes but NW uses the P9..
and where is VPS. If its direct out of EWR then it might be on CO metal. Just a guess here

I should have mentioned that it is all NW metal via MEM... DC9s to be exact.
VPS = Ft. Walton Beach/Valparaiso, FL. a.k.a. Okaloosa County Airport. It is physically located adjacent to Eglin AFB and shares a runway w/ them.
It is the closest airport to Destin, FL about halfway between Pensacola and Panama City. PNS and PFN are all served by Turboprobs and RJs from IAH and MEM...
