Quick Guide to Quick Select
Quick Select is a quick way to find and select what you are looking for.
All you have to do is enter the search text that you are looking for, separated by comma. Only matching items will be shown. You can also use negation not to look for items not matching your search text.

|---|---|
| SQ, not UA | shows any direct or connecting SQ itineraries, but will not show any SQ itinerary with UA segments |
| not SQ, SQ18 | will not show any SQ flights, even SQ18, because the not hides all SQ flights |
