Availability Tools - Which one is Accurate!!??
Ok, so i'm sitting at my PC with KVS 1.3.5 open on one screen,ExpertFlyer (premium) on another and Expedia aswell. I've typed in a certain flight to find out availibility, the only problem is..... all of them tell me differnt things.
My search is TLV-LHR / 2nd May 2005 / LY 315 or LY 317
KVS
Sabre: ITN/CWT & ITN/UA
LY 315 744 0 F2 A0 C2 I0 D0 Z0 W0 Y4 S4 M4 Q0 B0 K0 H0
LY 317 767 0 C0 I0 D0 Z0 W0 Y4 S4 M0 Q0 B0 K0 H0
ExpertFlyer
LY 315 744 0 F2 A0 C2 I0 D0 Z0 W0 Y0 S4 M4 Q0 B0 K0 H0
LY 317 767 0 C2 I2 D2 Z2 W4 Y4 S4 M4 Q4 B4 K4 H4
Expedia
LY 315 744 0 Y2
LY 317 767 0 Y2

The availability tools can only give you an idea. Different reservation systems have different inventories for the different fare classes. The only way to know for sure is to call the airline.
Because this has nothing to do with miles or points, I'm going to close it here.
