delta.com displays business, too, when clicking through from ITA via powertools. I'm not a DL flyer so I don't know if there are any advantages/disadvantages of booking there vs. any other OTA, just wanted to point out that it's searchable and bookable that way, too.

Right, K is typically economy, I'm guessing that the 'UPI' at the end of the fare code causes the upgrade into business. ITA shows the booking class as I for this KRLUPI fare basis.

Pretty interesting fare. Easy to get it to populate on OTAs.



And for the lazy. It even pulls up on Google Flights.

I got Nov 8 to Nov 19. Google flights calendar doesn't prepopulate the prices as you are exploring, so you won't be able to see it without clicking on the actual dates.

For example 2/21 - 2/26 - initiate the search on http://matrix.itasoftware.com with powertools installed, then click from the results page to delta.com

Given that it also readily shows up on GF, can be booked via expedia and other OTAs, and now has been posted on SF, it may be better not to spend too much time trying to get it to book on your preferred website but just use any of these that shows the flights for the dates you want.

The link is working now and I am seeing AeroMexico for that price but when I try to book it says not available.

Booked via Expedia. Now to sit back and enjoy the ride. Either a refund or Aero Mexico Dreamliner biz class.

Guys, is "f am.MIA+GRU.KRLUPI" the right string? I am having trouble searching on Matrix.
I want to book on Delta.com using powertools.
Thank you very much!
