What's up with SNA-OAK fares?
I normally travel SNA-OAK and find tickets in the range of $170-220. I was looking at flights for my next flight and to my shock, it priced out at over $700! Looking at Travelocity Fare Listings, it shows:
207.00 VE7A1N
213.00 WA7AN
761.00 EBIZX
773.00 QUAUP
Aside, from the QUAUP fare, it looks like there's no Q advance purchase fares. The jump from the W to E fare is huge. Does anybody know what's going on?

V & W are probably sold out, so you're forced into a EBIZX or QUAUP. Take the latter if you're going to fly UA. 
Of course, WN is probably much cheaper and it is only a 1 hour hop...
Maybe you've found a mistake in the loaded fares, and mentioning it here will mean it'll be fixed within a few hours.
