Intermittently over the last few days I have found the Sabre: Fares/DotRes is not showing premuim fares - see example

The fares show up using the Galileo and ATP methods
but I'm wanting to look at RTW fares, and the Sabre method is the only that shows them

We are looking into this issue. In the meantime, try changing the POS option as a work-around or use the [Fares/PSH] / [Fares/ATP] Methods for non-RTW Fares:

Not at the moment, but you can use the dedicated [Previous/Next] Day button and keyboard shortcuts to quickly 'scan' availability across 7 (or more) days. Certain Methods (currently [Awards/AC-StarAlliance] & [Awards/VS]) also have an Award Calendar functionality, which will will show a list of dates with available Award Seats within a +/- 14 Day range.

I have a BA buy one get one voucher that I'm trying to use. Does KVS specifically have a way to search only BA metal for awards? Looking to purchase a membership, but wanted to double check first, thanks

Is is possible to have the software installed on two different computers for a single user? Or does your software only allow it to be installed on one systems for a user at a given time. I am not talking about concurrent usage, just the ability to have the software installed on two different systems. That would allow me to use it at work and then later on at home if the need arose.

Indeed, the KVS Tool now supports C & F Award Availability for KE flights, departing on or after 01 Mar 2012. Please see http://Help.KVSTool.com/#Classes for details.
