Hello.
Confused. I use both KVS and ExpertFlyer. KVS shows - for award (-) First class (O) on LX161 Sept 12 NRT-ZRH BUT ExpertFlyer shows (O) 4 seats available... Which to believe to use my USairways miles with. The 'expanded' Award Availability is for M&M members only and is irrelevant for your purposes. Only the KVS Tool supports both 'sets' of Award Availability: [KVS Availability Tool 7.0.4/Diamond - SNT: Awards/StarAlliance/JP-ANA-SP1] Code:

I have used KVS for years now and followed your advice and did use:
POS: SP1 and also STD on SNT: Awards/StarAlliance and again comes up (-) for FS and CS...what am I missing here? Thank you.

If you are redeeming US DM miles, then you would need to check the Alliance/Partner Award Availability.

Should there be an entry for F in this search?
Hello, please see the picture of a redemption search below. We already have seats of QF12 in J on 24th Dec 2012. I'm going to keep an eye on availability in F now that we're on the A380 which has F. However, the search doesn't show anything (positive or negative) for F. Am I missing something?

Is there a good guide on putting together fares with this? [I.e. a start to finish tutorial].

Thank you.
I just wanted to make sure my settings were right. I appreciate the forum members' help.

Remember, award availability is constantly changing. I am no longer seeing a C seat available on that flight, so I'm guessing someone took the seat. As explained by KVS, there was never any F availability for you since you are using US miles and not LX miles.

If you would prefer to see the lack of Award Availability more explicitly, you can use the [Awards/JL-OneWorld] Method instead: [KVS Availability Tool 7.0.4/Diamond - Axess: Awards/JL-OneWorld/US] Code:

Problem With Routing Rules Engine?
Is anyone else having problems accessing routing rules at the moment?
I'm getting the following error message: "* INVALID RQST FOR RTGS - USE 4FR AND SPECIFY LINE NBR" (even when trying various fares and city-pairs which I am sure have worked in the past). Win7, KVS 7.0.4/Diamond - in case it makes a difference... |
