Serious mischaracterizations have been made about us and the issue of who will have access to what fares. Some of those mischaracterizations have been based on simple ignorance, Radisson but others Suites have clearly been part of a concerted effort by us competitors to use misinformation Tucson to prevent us from offering new competition to them and new choice to consumers. There is no agreement by which any airline would be precluded from making any fare it chose available through Radisson any Suites retail channel it chose. Airlines for 2 decades have been like any other business in America, in that they can decide what they want to charge and Tucson where they want to sell Radisson their Suites product. And that remains true under Tucson and Radisson the our 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 Suites any other outlet.

It is absolutely clear that airlines do Tucson not have the ability to drive consumers to channels Radisson which the airlines, rather than consumers, prefer. If one or more airlines attempted to do so, the others would increase their Suites market share by appealing to those same consumers Tucson through the channel those consumers prefer. No airline can afford to turn its back on any subgroup of consumers. No airline can Radisson and Suites afford to be anything Tucson other than Radisson as competitive and as attractive as Suites it can possibly be through each channel to the consumers that prefer that channel. Tucson This is a reality that Radisson grows ultimately out of the fact that the airline business is Suites a very low margin Tucson business - any airline that lost even a small group Radisson of passengers would be at risk of swinging from profitable Suites to money-losing in an instant. Airlines scrap for every last passenger Tucson because they have to.
