Looking forward to my Run for the Miles 2000 I'm wanting to look up valid routings for particular city pairs. This info used to be available on Expedia when I first started using it two years ago, but they now seem to provide only a very truncated version of the fare rules.

For example, when you linked to the rules for a particular RT, the display would include the valid routing along with all the other guff about the fare. Now you get the minimum info such as change fees, etc. etc. etc.

The other nice thing about the fare rules is it would show the class of fare. You can still get that at some sites, but it's not at your fingertips like it was at easysabre (R.I.P.).

Leads anyone?

Travelocity has routings listed under some of the fare rules. But if you can understand them, you're smarter than me!

Travelocity fare rule summaries show (unless you're seeing something I'm not) co-terminal info, but not valid routing. Those are cats of two different stripes.

For example, PDX-HOU use to allow this really convoluted routing through SEA-SFO-LAX-PHX-DEN-etc. The base fare was the same as if you flew with one connection but you'd pay a nominal fee for the extra segments - well worth if you're doing a miles run.

OK, I just found it on Expedia. Go to "Airline Fare List" then click on "More rules" for the fare desired. For example, SEA-NYC (which just went on sale btw):

ROUTING 2 *** BETWEEN DTT AND HOU MUST BE VIA CHI ***
2 FROM SEA-UA-GEG/BOI-UA-PDX-UA-BOI-
UA-
OR FROM SEA-UA-GEG/BOI-UA-PDX-UA-SFO-
UA-OAK-UA-SJC-UA-OAK-UA-SMF-UA-RNO/LAX-
UA-
OR FROM SEA-UA-PDX-UA-GEG-UA-
OR FROM SEA-UA-PDX-UA-SFO-UA-OAK/SJC-
UA-SFO-UA-SMF-UA-RNO-UA-SLC/LAS/PHX-UA-
OR FROM SEA-UA-GEG/BOI-UA-PDX-UA-MFR-
UA-EUG-UA-RDM-UA-EUG-UA-MFR-UA-SMF-UA-

Kew El, you are 2 for 2 this week! What next?
