Thanks for the suggestion.

This will be added to the next version as the [Max] option.

Yay! :)

Yay, that's an excellent addition.

Any chance you could get LX availability, possibly through LH's M&M database? That's a huge gap in NH's system.

Well, hopefully the word that LX is now a part of *A will get to NH eventually -- perhaps we should send NH a copy of the "Greetings SWISS" video: http://www.mwpmedienwerkstatt.de/sta...Seite4mpg.html ;).

Just pasted that front economy cabin from the 343.

The legend for most commonly-used codes is shown in the KVS Tool FAQ. However, LH uses its own set of codes...

I would guess that W denotes an over-Wing row, and E refers to an Exit row seat (see also http://www.seatguru.com/airlines/Luf...bus_A343_2.php).

Perhaps, if you re-post the properly-formatted map in the LH forum, someone there may have more info. Alternatively, you can ask a friendly LH agent, as this is the same map that they would be seeing on their terminal screen.

How do I access Pacific Blue (Virgin Blue International) timetables and itineraries using the platinum version? Probably just me being useless with my computer as usual, but just wondering. Specifically AKL-WLG 15 Nov 2007
Thanks, Chris

I dont belive you can access LCC's timetables and itineraries through KVS. Correct me if I am wrong.

That is correct -- most LCCs are not connected to any global reservation systems, so their flights won't show-up in the Tool.

Anyone else getting Datasource errors when using Wspan and Apollo ITN?

Have tried on both of my pc's, and getting the same thing, but only on those two engines.

I have the same problem.

It seems to be working again now.

Apollo had a major outage today until quite recently.

Recently some of my enquires are showing the airline code as YY. Also the fares are not showing properly (just says Y instead of the class breakdown) Have i done something to it?

Carrier From To Fare Cur Expiry Min Max Fare Basis
--------- ------ ---- --------- ---- --------- ---- ---- ----------
YY DEL DPS 52583 INR Fri 3M YEE3M
YY DEL DPS 75111 INR Y
YY DEL DPS 87977 INR C
YY DEL DPS 103565 INR F

Carrier From To Fare Cur Expiry Min Max Fare Basis
--------- ------ ---- --------- ---- --------- ---- ---- ----------
YY DEL HKG 40134 INR Fri 3M YEE3M
YY DEL HKG 66312 INR Y
YY DEL HKG 80055 INR C
YY DEL HKG 95372 INR F

YY is the full IATA published fare between 2 cities - I was actually quite surprised (and happy) that these are now showing up. You can usually fly an airline on any routing on such fares.

Cheers
