locating seat inventory by various classes
 

I've searched. Really, I have. Earlier this week, I located a link on webflyer.com which allowed me to check seat availability.

The link led me to a page on flyaow.com which showed specific seat inventory in various classes of service, not just the general Y and C availability/inventory.

Now try as I might, I can't find it on webflyer or by searching topics on this BB. I did bookmark the site, but unfortunately, I bookmarked a search I had done, not the "home" site.

Regrettably I'm too technochallenged to figure out how much of the URL I should crop off to get back to the page that will allow me to do search other flights.

Yikes! I can't figure this out myself. Please help. Thanks in advance! Travelling mercies to you.

This one?

http://flyaow.com/classavailability.htm

YES! thank you http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif thank you http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif thank you http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

This is great. Now can someone help with a primer on the class codes (I'm mostly interested in AA) for things other than the standard F and Y type codes. I presume some of these codes may be for award seats or upgrade seats - can someone help?

Thanks.

Does this site show how many seats are available on a flight or does it show how many seat in that class are still available?

I wouldn't get too excited about these sites. For example, A is everything in first class except F which is a straight paid first class ticket. Thus an A may be available for mileage upgrade, premium award ticket, elite upgrade, RTW and on and on. In other words, A is split into many smaller buckets. You may fit, you may not. So don't get all excited because you see A9.

Some airline web sites are quite good at showing what award seats are available. NW, AA UA, and BA come to mind, I'm sure there are others.

Never mind the list of codes - I found what I was looking for on the Unnofficial Guide to American Aadvantage. Very helpful site:

You'll find the United version here.
