YLPX3M fares? Or Y-up?

I found an interesting F-class fare combining a KL L-fare and an LH F fare but Amex couldn't find a way to book it. Does anyone know an agent who can figure this out?

TIA!

It looks like an ITA mistake to me (if thats the same fare you are finding...)....

I had a few PM's asking for more info. It's AMS to BKK via FRA. KL econ to FRA and LH F to BKK. I found this on lots of different days looking via ITA, starting a couple of months out.

I just need to find a way to book it!

Blimey, that is good !

Edit: So far, definitely seems like an ITA issue, fare code YLEE6M and one other I saw comes back with L on Kl and F on LH.

€ 1727,74, according to ITA

So far, no luck in booking this online. Maybe tomorrow, when the fare is loaded into all engines...

I must be thick, I can't seem to get it to come up this morning. Tried AMS:: KL FRA LH and BKK:: LH FRA KL as well as straight AMS and FRA, both in Cheapest Available and in First. Is it still there?

Gone with the wind. Sigh.

I see fairly cheap RJ C fares from AMS to BKK though. €2013 round trip. However I'm not sure I want to fly 9 hours from AMM to BKK on an A310!

I guess it was a loading error? Who loaded the fare anyway, KL or LH? Those tricky Germans almost never make mistakes...

I'm pretty sure it was LH that loaded the fares. There were lots of other interesting fares that they had loaded and they have all disappeared now.

And when I flew from BKK to AMM in J in July the whole cabin smelled of urine. Some usual problems with their lavatories according to the FA.
