You should be able to book them as Business Class seats.

BA.com only gives option for Economy. AA also can't see those seats. I will try and call it in tomorrow to Exec club. See if they can grab one. Thanks.

3 AA and 3 BA agents have confirmed that domestic can only be booked under Economy inventory. The Business class availability can not be used on a award.

I think the Business is showing phantom availability. You might wanna get that checked out.

We have verified, and BA is definitely returning positive C Award Availability on those flights, both for its own EC members and its OneWorld partners.

Phantom? I wonder if it requires a manual sell?

Yes, possibly.

Is there a free trial that I can use?

I loaded the software but it asks me to pay for a membership.

Hi KVS,

I am on the latest level 7.1.8. Searching [Awards/EY] and getting this error:

Data Source Error[R]:

"Invalid Input Parameters/Engine Error"

Please advise.

If you're a frequent traveler, pay for Diamond membership. It's worth it and you won't regret.

You may wish to consider one of the 2-month membership options, which are the shortest available: http://Join.KVSTool.com/

Is there a wildcard or some other way to show all flights at a specific airport, regardless of destination or orgination?

I want to be able to identify surges in demand for ground transportation.

You can get a list of all departing/arriving flights for a specific airport via the [Timetable] -> [Departures/Arrivals] Method.

This tool is really useful. thanks for sharing this tool with us.

Too good . We should all be aware in our use of new tool and how much beneficial it will be. I only use it for upgrades. Using it just to check loads. I don’t think this is going to affect any element.
