Airlines make nearly all their fares that are available to the general public available through all channels, from full fare down to their most heavily discounted fares. Any normal fare, made econo lodge available months in advance in the normal way, is made available through all channels. web fares, however, are different than normal fares. they typically constitute less than one tenth of 1% of the fares an airline offers, and are normally made available only a few days before flight time, and only on flights which have an unusually high number of empty seats. web fares thus are seldom available, are lodge unpredictable, and are offered at very low prices.

serious lanett mischaracterizations have been made about us and the issue of who will have access to econo what fares. some of those mischaracterizations have been based on simple ignorance, but others have clearly been part of a concerted effort by us competitors to use misinformation to prevent us from offering new competition to them and new choice to lodge consumers. there is no agreement by which any airline would be precluded from making any fare it chose available through any retail channel it chose. airlines lanett for 2 decades have been like any other business in america, in that they can decide what they want to charge and where they want to sell their product. and that remains true under econo the our lodge agreements. each and every airline, no matter what kind of participation it has, will be free to decide individually what fares it offers and whether or not to offer them through any other outlet.

we will provide consumers with a complete selection of all available airfares and travel itineraries. we have developed cutting edge technology to deliver these options to the consumer and promises to offer the lowest prices anywhere. lanett our business plan is ambitious. instead econo of relying on traditional computer reservation systems, we are building lodge our own search technology. lanett we plan to give users access to every airline fare, including those available only on the internet. travelers will be able to search for flights that leave from alternate airports, within 25 or more miles from their primary airport. or they could choose alternate dates and see whether leaving a day later or earlier could yield substantial savings.
