They own Priceline.

Aha. I know Delta owns some PCLN, but what fraction do they own, and which other airlines own how much?

So apparently the airlines want to provide the best deals to people using Priceline. Or the best combination of price and availability at least. To keep them coming back. Is it legal for the airlines with equity stakes in PCLN to provide better flight/seat access to PCLN than to another interested reseller?

Does your bullishness necessarily mean a grim future for other online deep discount airline ticket sellers, such as CTIX? I don't own any of these, and wouldn't right now. Just wondering how much of your optimism on PCLNB's share price is due to future profits, and how much is due to details of share availability, short count, etc.
