Newbie Guide?
I have been lurking for a while and I am glad I have found the site! Is there a newbie guide anywhere that list the steps for entering routings on an airline site, orbitz, etc?
Also any info on what the various fare codes mean? I've racked up over 100,000 miles on a couple flights and a ton of promotions and would like to begin to use them wisely.
TIA

shows and discusses all fare/class-codes of StarAlliance-carriers
I am pretty sure, that you find a similar link/discussion about one-world carriers in the one-world-forum here on FlyerTalk.

Fare codes (some, many, not sure if it's most) are different for each airline, so make sure you are looking at the correct airline.
