FlyerTalk Forums - KVS Availability Tool

We're currently in the process of resolving an issue with the MC -- it should be back up and running later on today. This does not affect the main KVS Tool application itself.

KVS anyway you can get the iPhone tool to remember the username? Or can we choose our own? I rarely get to use it as I can never remember the username assigned to me.

Its a excellent addition but I find myself never using it due to this reason only.

This option already exists -- you can enable the auto-login for up to 1 year:

Any chance we could just set our own password?

It was one of the most-requested features during the MC Beta phase (thanks for participating, BTW), so it was added a few weeks ago :).

KVS: which method that can match what USairways staff see when they make a reservation for award tickets on LH or LX using their DM miles program?

The [Awards/StarAlliance] Method will reflect what US can book.

However, the successful completion of a booking process will also require a competent agent, and the only "Method" for that is hanging-up and calling back again ;).

Yes, in order to use the *A award search functionality, you need to have a ANA account.

Which simply requires signing up for one... (no miles needed in the account)

I thought they changed is so that you do need miles in the account now? Anyway, a single mile sent over from SPG works to fulfill that requirement.

When using the KVS tool no miles are required in the ANA account.

When using the ANA website I believe something like ~ 100 miles are required.

I guess it depends on how you access ANA, because I haven't needed one with Awardnexus.com, which is nice.

Is it just with me or does it happen to everyone that when KVS means OPO (Porto, Portugal), PVH (Porto Velho, Brazil) is shown instead?
