Seat Maps: we're currently not able to show seat maps for flights departing within the next 24 hours for several airlines: DL, BA, QR , ANA, B6, & JL
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.

I wouldnt hold your breath. This is not an uncommon pattern in the software industry. Some developer(s) created a cool product, which then gets acquired by a massive conglomerate corporation, and now the product is left to wither on the vine. Just milking what it can from its loyal customer base, and new customers that dont know better. For the couple of years Ive been a customer, Ive seen no major updates or improvements. Just a few scattered comments on FT of things not being supported anymore. My guess is there is zero active development, and a truly minimal support staff.

I want to cancel but I paid for a full year, Feb-Feb, ugh.
I actually have some basic code to scrape seat data (against all the airline TOS) but I only run that code like 4 times a day for a few flights, so I may just go back to using that.

After two unanswered attempts to get more information from EF re status, canceled my upcoming yearly renewal. Will keep month-to-month for now.
Why would anyone buy this company and then destroy it?
