When looking up *A award availability I keep getting "Resolve Host" error message.

A dialogue box pops up that states:

Error requesting data:

Resolving Host >>>>>>>>>> [14] Name not resolved [12007]

I can access Apollo ITN, WSpan ITN, Sabre etc however not the *A award availability.

Help will be much appreciated!

Cheers.

Thanks for your quick feedback. I tried again after your note and keep getting the same error message. I then shut down the computer and powered back again get the same error.

Funning thing is it worked about an hour ago for me and then just this error started coming.

Not sure what the solution is other than keep my fingers crossed and hope it will start working again soon.

Quick question - does your POS show JP-ANA?

Did you try updating the KVS tool?

Regardig the POS. The POS is default as the ANA tool is based on Japan (JP). It's probably in some large room in Tokyo.

KVS Tool and Promo
 
Does the KVS Tool distingusish between FB promo award availability and other award availability? Can any award seat it shows as available be booked on a promo award (if it is advertised) or are promo awards only available in limited number as compared to other award bookings?

Not sure what the promo awards are, but the SkyTeam award inventory is based on what nwa.com shows as available, for the most part.

KVS no longer supports fare display for Business Class Fares

Access to a brand new fares engine is in the works...

Not being able to access International Business class fares anymore is an issue.
Any idea when this will be resolved?

A new version of the Tool, which will feature a brand new Fares Method will be released tomorrow. Thanks for your patience.
