ITA Matrix fabricating AA flight??
need help trying to book a flight ive found on ita
it seems that an IB marketed, AA operated flight has been completely fabricated by ITA.
The 7:50pm flight doesn't exist anywhere - even on AA's website.
I think this is the reason i can't book it with powertools.
The flight is "found" on Priceline, but when i put payment details in, and click the purchase button, it says this flight no longer exists.
Priceline link: LINK
Is it possible that with a small tweak somewhere, i am able to change the fabricated flight to a genuine flight, allowing me to book for the same price??
Any help would be hugely appreciated.
thanks

The flight exists on Iberia's website, and is available for sale there. Unfortunately, it appears that Iberia 4251's departure time of 7:50 pm does not match AA 38's departure time of 7:30 pm. Perhaps there was a recent (minor) schedule change by AA that IB has not yet picked up on.
