The [Apollo: ITN] Method is temporarily unavailable. I am hoping to release a new version, containing the necessary work-arounds, by Monday ...

In the meantime, Gold/Platinum-tier users should switch to the [Sabre: ITN] Method, or use the KVS Tool Online Companion for uninterrupted access.

Is this the same problem affecting geocities/farebuckets - do you expect that web site data base to be up and running soon?

It appears that the online tool is only for Platinum users? I attempt it and it complains of invalid uid/pwd.

Attempted both email and FT uid as userid. System code as the pwd.

I reported this earlier, but removed the post when it appeared again. Now, it seemed to have happened again, and have been happening for about 3 days now.

Sabre ITN doesn't seem to report QF awards now.

That is correct ...

Looks like QF is playing with the classes displayed ...

Version 2.7 Released
 

What's New in Versions 2.7.0/2.7.1/2.7.3:

• New [ITA: Awards/SkyTeam] Method:
  • (This replaces the [WSpan: Awards/SkyTeam] Method, which is no longer functional.)
    
    Code:

    ---

    Carrier  Flight From Depart    To  Arrive    A/C      Availability
--------- ------ ---- --------- ---- --------- ---- ---- ----------------
CO        18    EWR  18:50    LGW  06:55    777      YS- YA+  CS- CA+
NW        529    LGA  18:00    DTW  20:04    DC9      YS+ YA+  CS+ CA+
 -> NW    32    DTW  21:20    LGW  10:05    330

    ---

    Legend: YS = Standard (e.g. Saver) Economy Award, YA = Additional (e.g. PerkPass) Economy Award; CS = Standard Business Award, CA = Additional Business Award. "+" = The requested number of seats is available; "-" = the requested number of seats is not available.
    
    You can filter the results by airline/class/etc. using the [Filter] tab options.
    
    For more precise availability, you can specify the number of awards seats to query for (V2.7.1).
  
  
  
• Resolved: [Apollo: ITN] Method Errors (V2.7.1):
  • Access to this Method has now been restored.
  
  
• New [WSpan: ITN] Method (V2.7.1):
  • This Method is now also available via the KVS Tool Online Companion.
  
  
• [Apollo: Awards/UA] Method Removed
  • Unfortunately, UA has now de-commissioned their old awards engine, so this Method had to be removed. I will be looking at ways of re-introducing UA award availability into the Tool.
  
  
• Misc. Changes:
  
  • Fares via the the [Sabre: Fares/DotRes] method are now available in your choice of more than 148 currencies, including the Ugandan Shillings ;)
    
    
  • You can now specify up to 3 airline codes when using the [Apollo: ITN], [Sabre: ITN], [Sabre: Fares/ZUJ], [Sabre: Fares/DotRes], and [Amadeus: Timetable] Methods. Separate multiple airline codes with a semicolon (";"), e.g. BA; AF; AA

Another ouch. :(

Thanks for the quick update!! ^

DL flies JFK-ACC, but neither fare method will show a fare for this flight on account that it is "travel restricted" per the error message. I do not understand the "restriction" or security reason for not listing the air fare for a flight that obviously exists on a major carrier.

You can see NYC-ACC fares using the [Fares: Sabre/DotRes] Method, but you have to specify an airline:

[KVS Availability Tool 2.7.1/Platinum - Sabre: Fares/DotRes/US/USD]

In checking with another site, like expertflyer, they show all the classes. As many as 25 different ones on flights where they offer them. Doesn't look like a QF issue.

I am pleased to note that QF award booking classes are back again (via Sabre: ITN), e.g.:

[KVS Availability Tool 2.7.2/Platinum - Sabre: ITN/US-AXC1]

What happeend to X (Coach award)? It seems that KVS is stoping at 14 classes when EF reports all 25 (of which X is one of them) for QF 9 and 29. How come?

QF X class has not been showing for many months now -- it's a system limitation of the [Sabre: ITN] engine ...
