Regretfully, no, as that data is no longer being provided by the new NWA engine.

Please see the [Classes Displayed By Airline] section of the KVS Tool FAQ for some of the mappings ...

I can't seem to be able to download the 2.7 version. Whenever I click on the download link it brings up the installer for 2.6.2 ???

That really bites as it was the only reason I paid for my plat membership. :( Though I understand it isn't KVS' fault!

Using the new Skyteam search, you cannot search from MAN, my home airport. :(

I second that, this knocks out about 50% of the value I get from this program. Did NW do this for secrecy reasons?

Not to the best of my knowledge, but that could have been one of the secondary reasons for this change ...

Thanks for the error report -- it will be fixed in the next version.

If anyone else comes across an airport code that generates a "we need you to clarify" message, please let me know,

I feel the same way, although KVS still provides plenty of useful information for me. But my primary purpose in signing up for a platinum membership was to be able to check BusinessFirst upgrade inventory on an upcoming CO flight without having to waste time calling CO every day. :(

Thanks but stil doesn't yield anything. In fact tried downloading it on another PC (which had never been on the KVS website) and that also downloaded 2.6.2.

Your ISP/proxy server must be caching an old version... Try again now and let me know ...

Didn't work on my home ISP but using the proxy server from work made it work.

Thanks :D

It's a message from the NWA engine (which does have some quirks)... Pls post the city pair/date/carrier selection, and I will look into it.
