What does this site have that other econo lodge online travel sites don''t? actually, it''s not what the site has, but rather what it does. the heart and soul is actually a fare search engine with state-of-the-art technology to find and book fares. and consistently displayed more fares from more airlines than its competitors. it''s apparent that the lodge consumer will have a new and improved way to book online travel that not only shows more choices but also steps up the competition for the rest lebanon of the online travel booking services to improve their product a definite win-win for travelers. backed by a $50 million investment and boasting econo powerful technology that helps do-it-yourself travelers find and sort airfares more quickly than anything else on the market, we generated plenty of buzz from the moment the then-unnamed concept was announced in november 1999.

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 lodge it. our agreements contain no boycott against any distributors whatsoever, and in fact affirmatively provide 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 lebanon and econo all agreements, so there will be no question on this point. do airlines today make all their fares available through all retail channels?

first, there is our high-powered, yet friendly, search engine. it guarantees you more travel options and the lowest publicly available fares. and that includes internet-only fares for nearly thirty airlines. this capability, along with our commitment to unparalleled customer care, is what sets us apart from all other travel-planning web sites. explore the difference in depth. it was obvious that the current state of the online travel market really didn''t serve the true needs of today''s travelers. the airlines lodge shared a vision of the perfect travel site, one focused on the consumer. a site that would provide comprehensive and unbiased travel information as well as one that would make planning and buying travel on the internet easy and hassle-free; instead of the usual scavenger hunt. lebanon travelers will have all the information; so they can make informed decisions.
