Thanks!

We do not have an ETA for DL awards at this time.

I hope I'm making sense here.
Is there a way to create flight alert (perhaps I'm using the wrong wording) for a specific Delta flight (9/10/22 DEN-DTW-ALB) that will alert me when there are TWO seats in fare class I and Q or in fare class Z and U available?

You can set any quantity you want for a Flight Alert, however each alert is for 1 class code, not a combination of them.

Just received a slew of AA C (upgrade) alerts as EF is showing all AA flights are C7 (upgrades). I wish! Is there a bug in the system? Will the system automatically resurrect the alerts I created or do I have to do that manually and create again?

There is no bug, AA changed the C inventory while making updates overnight (judging by the time that you made this post). If you want an alert to keep searching go to the View Saved Alerts page, click on the Notified box and click the resubmit button for the alerts you want to resubmit.

Just FYI for people using EF, there seems to be either a temporary issue or a permanent issue with B6 and EMS seats. EF is currently showing EMS seats as occupied, even if they are not. I know this was working properly within the last few months. I already contacted EF support about this, so this is really to let people know about this issue.

It looks like the ability to sell EMS in the reservation systems is broken and that's why the seats are showing as Occupied (this is how it was before that functionality was enabled). Once JetBlue fixes the issue, the proper seat status will show again.

Hello Experts,

Is the chrome extension or scripts available for Expert Flyer where it highlights the rows with available inventory on Award search ? I had it in my old laptop and can't remember how I got it ?

Hello,

first time Expert flyer user on this level. I'm looking a good city to star a trip to MIA on October (18.10.22-8.11.22). It seems there is a valid fare (INN0C6S4) on AA, BA and AY which would need space on I inventory. Then I go and see if there is space on those days and there is both on AA and BA (same flights but different flight numbers).

After I go and see from google flights or Matrix but its only giving me flights with C/D/R inventory and fare RNN0C6S2 which is 400 euro higher than INN0C6S4. I'm I doing something wrong or what?

I'm just looking a good starting city as my plan is to do something like BUD-LHR-MIA-LHR-HEL-XXX as I have done years now but it seems I can not find decent city to start.

If this was asked already, pardon me.

I searched for 'VS' but couldn't find what I was looking for.

I'm trying to book LAX-HND for ANA Suite F using VS miles. Seems like I have to manually search UA to find seat. Can EF do this for me if I pay for the service?

Thanks

Hi there - I apologize if this is a known issue and has been discussed before. I'm trying to search for FJ award availability on EF, but am always getting "No availability can be found for the date and class(es) specified", rather than a list of flights with no award seat, even on the days there are FJ flights on the route I'm searching for. For example:

https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...ac2f5087bb.jpg

Am I missing anything..?

We just did that same search and see the flight being returned, please try again.

You can use ExpertFlyer to search for ANA award inventory. It doesn't matter that you're using VS miles or another partners miles, we show partner inventory for ANA.
