Finding the right fare
Are there any travel/airline websites out there that allow searches in specific classes? For example, I want to fly to Europe and use miles to upgrade...I'm trying to find the lowest upgradable fare (B I think)...expedia, orbitz, nwa.com, etc. only either give unrestricted and restricted fares, with little choice in the fare class. I did find one site that shows the class, but you can't search for the class...any suggestions?

EasySabre does this. Oh yea, I forgot, it was discontinued a few years ago because nobody needed those features

Unfortunately, you usually have to call the airline these days to get that information. I'm not sure why they haven't pushed to have it readily available on their own website. With so many projects and frequent flier program changes that are trying to encourage travelers to purchase higher revenue fares, it is mind boggling to me that airlines haven't made it easier to do so. I guess it's only a matter of time before they get the clue.
