IIRC X = Y awards, Z = J awards. EF officially supports PG but they are showing pais fare classes as award inventory   :o

Does KVS support PG as of now?

Doesn't look like PG makes its X/Z Classes visible -- do you have a source for this mapping?

Do you have a copy of your Award E-Ticket?

We have now received a confirmation from our contacts at PG that their current Award Booking Classes are, indeed, X/Z.

You can use the [Power Search] function in the KVS Tool to locate 1 or more EY F Award Seats.

The exact number of Award Seats will be displayed, but it cannot currently be set as a Power Search criteria when using the [Awards/EY] Method.

Ah, that was the original question. Let it be a suggestion for next update :)

Or at least to add such a parameter to the filter so the power search can effectively run for X seats (where X is any number greater than 1).

We will be adding the [Seats] option for the [Awards/EY] Method in the next update.

Right, but I'm looking for a one stop tool that will search F and J awards. Can't you scrape their site?

The KE Engine does not currently meet the criteria for inclusion.
