Those are all the rows that DL's system is currently willing to provide (for whatever reason) -- unfortunately, there is no way for us to 'force' it to display add'l rows.

But if you go to Delta.com and select the flight the seat map is readily available.

The Graphical option does work -- just be sure that you are running the latest KVS Tool version and that you have pop-up blockers disabled.

Please goto [Tools -> Internet Options -> Advanced -> Security] and turn on the [Allow Active Content To Run in Files on My Computer] option.

The AC engine did not support ET Award Availability at the time of the OP, but it does now.

As mentioned in the top post, this thread is dedicated specifically to the KVS Tool.

In order to keep it on-topic, other tools/sites/services should be discussed in their own respective threads (and, preferably, using one's primary handle).

Must be a transient issue with the [Awards/AC-StarAlliance] engine -- please try again and advise if the issue persists.

New user, basic question. I'm trying to check *alliance availability for end of Nov 2012 and I keep getting an error message about 330 days out. Is there no way for me to search for availability then?
