ITA Matrix Search: http://matrix.itasoftware.com

You can sometimes see flights, fares and detailed fare rules that may not be reflected on an airline's website. Please read the thread for some tips and tricks, screen shots, etc.

A related thread, ITA-Matrix-PowerTools - Userscript for Orbitz/DL/UA/AA/BA/CZ/IB/LA/LH/LX/TK, discusses a user script which is maintained by fellow flyertalk members to enhance the already powerful Matrix of ITA Software by providing new features and booking links.

Additional details and tips on the use of ITA's advanced routing code feature can be found in the following long-standing Mileage Run Discussion threads:

Darn, you mean the conspiracy theories I was enjoying are out the window as well?

I'm getting the same thing. Makes ITA Matrix virtually useless for trips beginning in Europe.

Ironically it returned the same error for trips beginning in either Vienna or Salzburg (both Austria) with NYC as the sole destination.

Can someone help me book this fare? I call Air Malta and they want 500 euros or say it's not possible. The only OTA I see offering it is Kiwi.com which scares me based on what I've read about it.

I could book out of the UK for £147 plus a booking fee of £10.00. Ticket is non refundable. Changes from EUR40.00 (including our fee of EUR15) plus any difference in fare.

We are open 24/7 but would charge if you ring outside of UK office hours for a non emergency.

I found it on Opodo.com (via Momodo.com) for EUR 145. Seems bookable. But I do not speak, read or write Italian so YMMV.

I don’t think I’ve booked with Cheapoair, but I think they’re legit, yes. At least they show up on Kayak, Momondo etc. all the time.

Funny thing about an hour after I posted now Expedia, Orbitz, Travelocity are all showing it for a slightly cheaper price $182. I wonder if it had anything to do with me calling Air Malta this morning and surprising the agent who couldn't understand why it wasn't showing as a valid itinerary.
