Hi, does anyone have a link to the old booking page where one could select the booking class? I'm trying to look for S fares.

Thanks.

Does that still work?

I use the ITS Matrix and input the fare code, for example for m:

VS / f bc=m

No, that feature still doesn't work.

It LOOKS like it does, as it lets you select your fare code, but try selecting an S and the fare it comes back with is a K.

You'll either have to call FC or, as mentioned previously, use ITA Matrix if you can.

I just call FC and ask for an S fare. If the agent is on the ball - they usually are - they will ask you if you want to check for a G upgrade there and then

Well, I've just spend an enjoyable hour learning about ITA matrix here.

It may seem a bit daunting at first but is reasonable easy to follow.

Thanks for that, you reminded me that I need to bookmark it.

Sorry for the ipad typo. ITA, not ITS or even ITV!

I can't get to grips with the ITV, ITS or ITA matrix ;)...thanks to DD for putting that link up. I'll have a read in the morning after the Chardonnay has worn off!!!

Darren,

I just go to https://matrix.itasoftware.com and put the departure, arrival airports and dates in. Then hit the advanced routing link. Add in the little code I put above (obviously change the m if you want a different bucket) and hey presto.

This comes up:

Hit the 'details' tab on the far right and it gives the full info for the flight.

Sorry if the images aren't too clear but I had to keep reducing them down to fit.
