Dual Fares Fact SheetIn many city pairs, there are two contract fares, also known as Dual Fares: a highly discounted unrestricted fare (YCA), and a capacity controlled fare (_CA) with an even deeper discount. _CA fares have a limited number of seats, but no other restrictions. _CA seat availability on a particular flight varies carrier-by-carrier and market-by-market. _CA airfares allow an agency to save the most money possible, while still enjoying the same top quality service available with YCA fares.
