QF online booking engine and booking class inventory

[wrldtrvllr]

when booking flights on Qantas website how do you know which booking class is made available to you? i know QF are having sale flights to EZE but when i check EF for seat availabilities there are plenty cheap "O" seats and available seats online are priced more expensive than advertised fare. how do you reconcile that? there's no cheaper inventory is there? how else could you get the "O" class seats at "O" prices? i've tried a variety of other booking websites but still can't get the advertised price.

Qantas has chosen to hide booking class display for flights when searching.

This may be for laziness reasons, competitive reasons or just to frustrate Frequent Flyers who credit to other oneworld FF schemes.

Fare sales don't always end up in O class. There are many others they use for International sales.

Assuming you are talking about the $1484 fare SYD-EZE for early next year, I do see some availability for example 20 March, return 24 March 2010.
