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

Most airlines today choose to make web fares available only on their own websites, because these fares are so low it would be uneconomic farm to offer them through the higher cost channels. (It is, in fact, very common throughout the retailing world for stores or catalogs to also have a website, and for that website to offer san a few prices that are below the prices charged for the same goods in the store or the catalog.) However whether an airline chooses to luis make its web fares obispo and apple available through CRS''s to travel agents and farm the san websites that rely on CRS''s is strictly an individual luis and obispo and apple airline decision, and farm will remain so once Orbitz is up and running. Several san and luis third party websites (such as intellitrip.com) today obispo take web fares from apple various airline websites (which they can do, because nothing is more public than a website) and display them farm in one place for their customers. And san of luis course obispo travel agents can book web fares off apple an airline''s farm website for a customer san and luis if they wish (although whether they get a commission on that booking is up to the individual airline) obispo.
