Help: Availability of D bucket on DONEX
So as part of my DoneX I am looking to fly LA532 on 23-Jan-2014.
Expertflyer shows D7, Oneworld tool lets me include it and I can get all the way up to having to put my details in, but my company travel agent says (and has sent me the screenshot of) her system feeding out of Amadeus showing D0 and waitlist closed??
Any explanations for this or ways around it?
Otherwise I face a connection through Lima which I never particularly relish, especially when it means me missing a chance to fly 787!

Booking class is actually sub-divided by various rules which may alter availability. Common ones are point of sale (D may be available if ticketed in certain countries but not in others), and married segment logic (D may be available for O&D but not if there is a transit before/after the flight or vice versa).
LA532 operates EZE-SCL-JFK. Are you looking for EZE-JFK or SCL-JFK? Availability may be different.
I notice JL has a codeshare on the flight (JL7627). Availability on the codeshare may differ from the operating airline (could be better or worse availability).
Other routing options to consider are via EZE or GRU or GIG or MIA
