Where does the KVS tool get its data and is KVS authorized to provide this data in the manner it is presented?

The tool is known to access a variety of web sites, many in a manner that is not authorized. Please see the next section of this Wiki for a list of sites believed to be accessed and their data access policies (where known).

Additionally, under some conditions the tool appears to access sites via a KVS-operated back end. This means that the tool is not just a 'web browser' that runs via a user's machine. No detailed public information is available about how this works or whether any of this back-end access is authorized.

After the "No Trips Found" message appears, click [Perform Another Search] (in the ITA browser window) -> [More Options] and un-select the [Check seat availability] option.

Couple of questions

1) Any way to check Etihad (EY) award availability with KVS?

2) Any way to check JL available using the JL method (seems to only support Qantas and CX)?

At the moment, EY Upgrades are supported, but not EY Awards.

JL Award Availability is supported via the [Awards/BA-OneWorld] Method.

Generally speaking you'll get the most accurate results by using the search tool of the program from which you are redeeming points. If you are redeeming partner points then most of the time it is all the same for all partners but not always. If you see it available give a call and try. Worst they can say is no.

CX is notorious for its system issues when it comes to Award Availability. While CX Award Availability is supported via 4 different engines in the KVS Tool, the data from the recently introduced [Awards/JL-OneWorld] Method is the most authoritative and will match the current Availability that BA/AA and other OneWorld partner agents are seeing.

Assuming you are interested in those 2 F Award Seats, you should call BAEC to redeem ASAP.

Well, the "demo" account is working again. So expect announcement from KVS, that "Sabre: GTC" has been restored, soon

Would love to see EY awards added. Their web site is very clunky to navigate back and forth to try our availability
