Passenger Type Used In Pricing
Passenger Type Used In Pricing reflects the lowest available fare for your selected flights.
This may differ from the Passenger Type you selected because AA.com always searches for the lowest available fare regardless of passenger type. For example, if you specified 'child', you may see 'adult' in this column because that was the lowest available fare for your selected flights.
