Just noticed that Passengers with disabilities (PWD) was added to the drop-down box under where you select # of passengers. I don't know how long this has been there because I always used the hyperlink. I noticed it today because when you select 2 or more passengers, it now requires you to select a "passenger type" for each passenger (this is now going to be a pain for those of us who like to check inventory by selecting 8 passengers :eek: ).

The other nice thing about have PWD in that list is that, after the screen where you tell what your disability is, it takes you back to the same screen you would see if you had left the default of Adult. In the past, you couldn't see the prices until you made all your selections (coach, roomette or bedroom). A very nice improvement.
 
I don't like the chnanges at all. You cannot see full round trip fares without adding a trip option to the cart. Old way was better.

They must of just did it, I booked our trip end of Oct last Thursday, and it was doing the old way. I agree, the new was better.. before I would of done the normal way since 8/28 are not priced the same.
