Actually, the KVS Tool Beta is now underway for dedicated 3-tier SQ awards functionality, which will include the SQ KF members-only awards (such as the 77W/380 awards mentioned above).

The sign-up link is located on the Tool's homepage.

That would be great, because as a KF member I don't redeem any *A awards but only burn miles on SQ. Being able to find saver awards more easily than through the SQ website would be extremely useful. :)

Is it typical to wait for more than 30 minutes for the registration email as I thought a temporary code was provided instantaneously?

Temporary Registration Codes are, indeed, issued instantly -- have you checked your Junk folder?

A copy has now been also forwarded to an alternative e-mail address you have provided.

Yes, checked the junk folder and sent through multiple alternative emails. Received the email into one of those accounts, so now up and running. For some reason it didn't go to my main live mail account or hotmail.

LA Awards: GIG-SCL
 
Hello,

I've been shopping around numerous places trying to find an answer to my question/problem.

Although the KVS tool is showing Y availability in early August of next year for the GIG-GRU-SCL flights, it isn't showing any C availability. In fact, it would appear that one of the direct flights is actually not operated with a J cabin (the A320 flight).

It is returning award availability in Y, but when I try and book it through AA, it isn't showing up in their inventory. This is a part of an RTW mileage ticket, which I would really like to include GIG, and not GRU. Unfortunately, I have not been left with much of a choice!

Can you think of any reason why the GIG-SCL availability is not showing up in AA's system?

Furthermore, any idea why the newly announced (but already loaded) GIG-SCL nonstop isn't showing up?

Thanks in advance!

Cheers,
Cameron

That's correct -- there is no C cabin on those A320 flights:

No, but we can think of tens of reasons why an agent would claim that they can't book it.

It's showing-up just fine (when there is award availability):

Coupon
 
Is there any coupon code I can use to register for new membership? I'm interested in the gold level.

Version 5.7.9 SkyTeam Award Info problem?
 
I just installed 5.7.9 and seem to have lost the award mileage that used to appear when checking the Info box on the Awards/Upgrades tab for SkyTeam awards. The segment time (Dur) appears instead.

There aren't any, but you are welcome to take advantage of the annual membership option, which includes 2 complimentary months.

You just need to set the [Airline:] option to DL for this info to show.
