All of the prices I'm seeing are different than what you're seeing. Are you using the US / US Dollar website? I assumed so based on it using a $, but nothing in your screenshot matches mine.

Also, you're not marking this as a corporate booking/business travel when searching, right?

Edit: I was able to replicate this problem when I marked the booking as business travel, which uses private fares (in my case on a PassPlus account) rather than those that are publicly available. Assuming you're marking it as business travel, it appears that the W fare isn't allowed under your corporate program. If you uncheck the box for business travel you should see everything, otherwise you'd just need to search using all booking codes.

No just a standard search. No business account or anything like that. I even tried a search using a different browser and not logged into my account and got the same results.
