Searches currently not working:
- Upgrades - AY, BA, EK, EY, IB, QR, VS
- Awards - AY, BA, IB, EY, QR, VS
To search AA upgrades:
- Use the Award & Upgrade tool
- Only search for individual segments (set the "Connection Preference" drop-down to "Direct/Non-Stop only"). Flight results that are part of a connection won't show the upgrade version of C or A inventory because AA only files upgrade inventory as individual, not married, segments. (Married segments show revenue inventory instead of upgrade inventory.)
- To avoid confusion, check the "Exclude Codeshares" box, as AA awards and upgrades are not valid on codeshares.

Hi,
Is there any way to correct the flight date after purchasing a Seat Alert on Expert Flyer? Unfortunately the wrong date was inadvertently selected when I was setting up the Seat Alert and I didn't notice it until after I had completed the purchase. Or have I wasted my money and just have to buy a new alert?

start reading from post 1785 (linked above) onward.
However there have been reports in the main RUC thread of RUC availability not equalling Z, so YMMV. In any case that is a subject for followup in the DL forum, not here.

Hi,
Can EF or a reader please explain these line to me from the MCT query for AF at CDG
This is a connection from International to International, both in Terminal 2E, but what does CDS, EY, mean?
Why is the line published if the MCT is the same as standard on-line/off-line International to International given above it?
AF-AF II 1.30 CDS N/A - EY TRM 2E - 2E
and it contradicts this line which is below it
AF-AF II 1.00 CDS N/A - ** TRM 2E - 2E 21JUL22 - INF (which I interpret as 1 hr from 7/22, but I still don't know what CDS means)
thanks in advance - I am looking to ascertain the MCT at CDG for AF681 from ATL to AF962 to TLV

Unfortunately BA & Iberia awards searches are currently failing with this error:
BA award inventory is temporarily unavailable due to an issue with our data provider. They are actively working to fix the issue. Thank you for your patience.

Looks to be broken again. Getting this error just now with an Iberia award search:
IB award inventory is temporarily unavailable due to an issue with our data provider. They are actively working to fix the issue. Thank you for your patience.

Does expertflyer work for M&M availability for Singapore AIrliness Business award availability?
Tried searching but could nowhere retrieve any availability.
Will alerts work for upcoming trip or is not able to check singapore availability?

EF shows partner level award inventory for SQ flights so yes that should work.

As noted the SQ website will show the expanded KrisFlyer inventory whereas EF shows the partner level award inventory, so looking at the SQ website would be the one website not to compare EF to. If you do the same award search on UA or AC or M&M (which you said you were looking for) you'll see there is no award inventory for that flight available to partners, matching EF's results.

What is LinearAir ("O2") that keeps showing up in some of my searches? Online they appear to be a charter outfit, possibly just charter broker. But, e.g. on 1-october they show two non-stop flights #1679 and #1789 from Kingman, AZ (IGM) to LAX. Those cannot possibly be "real" right? What are they?
thanks,
