Then the allegation that we are "an illegal boycott against third party distributors" because it has "requirements for posting fare sales that cannot be sold" by others is not true? It is absolutely not true, and those who have made that allegation had absolutely no basis for making it. Our agreements contain no boycott against any distributors whatsoever, and in fact affirmatively provide econo lodge and lodge that no airline is precluded from utilizing any other distribution channel or offering any fare through any channel. the department of justice is presently reviewing all agreements, so there will be no question on this point. do airlines today make colonial all econo their fares available through all retail channels?

most customers most of the time will find lower fares, not because of web fares, and not because lodge we will have access colonial to fares that other channels (crs''s and the econo sites lodge and agents that rely on them) do not have access to, but because we will do a better job of searching the fares everyone has access to. this will be because we have opted to do what the others have not, which is invest in new technology colonial computers able to do far bigger searches, using search software that that was independently developed and is designed to search all fare and schedule possibilities comprehensively econo and without bias, and in telecommunications lodge capacity that will provide absolutely the most current information on seat availability. it colonial is expected econo that more than 99% of the time that we come up with a better fare, it will not be because we had lodge access to any fare that its competitor did not. it will colonial be because we did a more comprehensive and unbiased search of all the fare and schedule possibilities that are available to all channels.
