Yeah, we all know how it works, Bill. Interesting that the airlines are
not subject to legal penalties for selling a product they don't have abd
can't claim is out of stock. But, then, the rules are different for
corporations.


They do get penalized. They pay bump fees to the bumpies. Who you go for
the case where you buy a ticket and that ticket is good on only the flight
it is sold for? You go on a business trip and have to change the itinerary.
You willing to write off 50% of the ticket? Seems as if the Unions are even
more crooked than the corporations. What union investment fund had insider
trading? Even the spokes person got enough money to buy a $300k+ Lobsta
boat. What about all those AFL /CIO pension fund scandals?
