Worked fine yesterday with previous revision.

I just tried it and everything works fine in V3.1.1. If the problem persists, pls provide the exact error message.

I got fare rules yesterday and last week using previous rev. Not routing rules, but fare rules.

I am not entirely sure why the ANA engine is returning that error, but the adjacent date works fine:

The problem is appearing because FRA-EZE operates only 5 days a week, and Monday Sept 1 isn't one of those days. The ANA tool can't produce an alternative routing (if you're asking it to with the Max box checked).

That was my original thought, but the Timetable showed that that flight does operate on Mondays:

Hmmph, whaddaya know. I didn't think it operated Mondays but it does.

And in fact this isn't apparently an ANA website problem either, logging into my ANA account award search pulls up the flights and there's award availability.

I couldn't find an announcement related to this. I have KVS Tool Plat. v.3.1.2, and was looking for fares (not routing rules) YOW-FRA with AC using the Sabre: Fares/ZUJ method. It produces 35 results (with Max checked) but none show the M, U, or Y fare classes. I do have the class set to Economy. Basically, it shows the fares from lowest to highest, but does not reach the fully flexible Economy fares. If I uncheck Max, it returns the first 32 results instead of 35.

Any suggestions on how the flexible economy fare classes can be displayed?

The ANA website can only search for R/T award itineraries, so if you set the departure date to 01 Sep and return date to be next day (i.e. 02 Sep), the ANA website will throw an error (because the [return] flight does not operate on Tuesdays) ...

[Fares/ZUJ] Method is, indeed, limited to 35 fares (with the Max option activated).

To see the remaining Y fares, pls use the [Fares/DotRes] Method.
