Unfortunately, the WINE/CrossOver teams do not provide any specific ETAs when it comes to their bugs.

For immediate access to the Methods in question, you may wish to consider using one of the other Mac solutions instead: http://Help.KVSTool.com/#Mac

Are *A Awards still available for search on KVS? Seems like the functionality was killed off on the "other" search engine. Other tool was a bit easier to read and had a lower learning curve, but now that I've learned a bit, seems that KVS is not too big an issue to learn ;)

KVS Tool users continue to enjoy 100% Star Alliance Award Availability coverage:

I purchased the 12m diamond membership several days ago. However, I did not get any email after a temporary registration code. Could you please help me?

I am running into an error running a Skyteam Award search on CZ, LAX to CAN to SYD. I've tried individual segments and LAX to SYD and the majority of the time I receive an error "Datasource Error [RD] Engine Error/Date Out-of-Range", but I am searching dates in Feb 2014. Once in a great while the tool will return a result without error, but there seems to be no pattern to it. I am able to log into the AirFrance website and run the same search without any problems.

Could you please provide a specific search example and a screenshot from AF.com?

Looking at this in more detail, for days on which a calendar search on AF shows availability KVS will return the flights, but on days which their are no openings it returns an error instead of no flights. This makes the new power search feature unusable.

It is an issue with the Engine itself as it is returning an error when there is no Award Availability.

For [Power Search], you may wish to use the [Availability/FS] Method instead:

For the SkyTeam (AF) method, I am seeing certain flights (mostly MU) where there is availability A-B-C but nothing shows when you search B-C itself. Availability/FS option shows zero. Is it safe to assume there is no availability on the flight in question or are they applying married segment logic to awards too?

Also seems to be a large discrepancy between the SkyTeam-AF and the Availability-FS options when it comes to MU flights in general.

The [Awards/SkyTeam] Method does not support MU flights.
We have updated the KVS Tool User Guide and [Availability/ETR] is now the preferred Method for MU Award Availability:

Thank you :-:

hi everyone, sorry I think I got the most idiotic question in this tread, but I just can't figure out. I use KVS tool for a long time, but I was looking for couple fares and wanted to try to find using this fare(ITA)

It takes me to http://www.kvstool.com/ITAQueryBuilder/

on top it says Copy-and-Paste these values into the corresponding fields in the frame below.

I put the dep. and arrival routing codes

for example:
WAS :: /F UA.WAS+SAO.KLX2G9LN for departure
SAO :: /F UA.WAS+SAO.KLX2G9LN for arrival


[KVS Availability Tool 7.3.3/Diamond - Fares/PSH/RU]

IAD Washington Dulles Intl DC US [KIAD]
SAO Sao Paulo Metro SP BR = GRU CGH VCP
R/T 10 Jun 2014 | Economy-Low

Carrier From To Fare Cur AdvanceP Min Max Fare Basis | Travel Period
--------- ------ ---- -------- ---- -------- --- --- --------------------------
UA WAS SAO 1043 USD 21 Days 7 KLX2G9LN 11 Mar-18 Jul


I keep getting No flights found.


Am I doing something wrong or just all flights are sold out and ita tool won't show them.

Again, sorry for stupid question, but I tried searching and couldn't find such stupid idea like I just had :)

Thanks!

After copying-and-pasting the Departure/Arrival values, select the [Calendar Of Lowest Fares] option (say 01 Apr 2014, 7 nights).
