Farecompare question

[macko420]

I set up some alerts on this site and I am wondering why some results are N/A. Some of these show up with the major airports so it shouldn't be that there are no flights to my destinations.
Is is possible that farecompare can't see 'everything'. It seems to be such a good website.
BTW, I am also using ITA and finding some lower fares then I have found elsewhere! The only thing is that you can't book thru there. You need to get the info and then go to the airlines sites to book.

Give me some O&D examples of the anomaly...

Are you alerting for specific city pairs or for flights out of particular city? I tend to get more complete alert lists for origination cities (the "O" part of O&D). When you say "N/A", I take that to mean "not applicable" or "not available" and I've never seen such a result. Can you elaborate?

Hi Pat,
Yes, I am giving both specific O&D airports on specific dates. Actually, I have several O's and a couple of different D's! We are planning to go to Orlando leaving from Pa so I selected several airports near us and a few FLA destinations just to 'open' up the options a little more.
I take N/A to be not available too but that can't be given I'm looking at PHL to MCO!
I must be making this harder then it needs to be!!

Try ORL for a destination....

I'll reverse it for you...
