Serious mischaracterizations Channel have been made about us Island and the issue of who will have access to what fares. Some of those mischaracterizations have been based on simple ignorance, but others have clearly been Inn part of a concerted effort by us competitors to use misinformation 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 Suites from making any fare it chose available through any 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 where they want to sell their product. And that remains true under the our agreements. Each Channel and Island and every airline, no matter Inn what kind of participation it has, & will be free to decide individually Suites what fares it offers and whether or not to offer them through any other outlet.
Airlines make nearly all their fares that are Channel available Island to the general public available through Inn all & channels, Suites from Channel full fare down to their most heavily discounted fares. Any normal Island fare, made available months in advance in the normal way, is made available through all channels. Web fares, however, are different Inn than & normal fares. They typically constitute less Suites than one tenth of 1% Channel of the fares an airline offers, and Island are normally made Inn available only a few days before flight time, and only on flights which have & an unusually Suites high number Channel of empty seats. Web fares thus are seldom available, are unpredictable, Island and Inn and are & and Suites offered at very low prices.
Most airlines today choose to make web fares available only on their own websites, because these fares Channel are so low it would be uneconomic to offer them through the higher cost channels. Island (It is, in Inn fact, very common throughout the retailing world for stores or catalogs to also have a website, and for that website & to offer a few prices that are below the prices charged for the same Suites goods in the store or the catalog.) However whether an airline Channel chooses to make its web fares available through CRS''s to travel agents and the websites that rely on CRS''s is strictly an individual airline decision, and will remain so once Orbitz is up Island and running. Several third party websites Inn (such as intellitrip.com) today take web fares from various & airline websites (which they Suites can do, because nothing is more public than a website) and display them in one place for their customers. Channel And of course travel agents can book web fares off an airline''s website Island and Inn for a customer if they wish (although whether they get a commission on & that booking is up to the individual airline) Suites.
