IFLY Under Accumulation By CEO of Major Travel Firm
He has told us as plainly as he knows: he wants more stock.
What is amazing is that more e-travel investors did not jump in and bid this stock up higher.

First Internet's 1800USAHotels.com does about $70 million per year in gross reservations which is somewhat similar to IFLY (which will probably do a bit more than that for the year just ended). internetnewsbureau.com "About 1800USAHotels.com 1 800 USA Hotels is a leader in worldwide discount hotel and travel reservations.

1800USAHotels.com is the largest division of First Internet and accounts for most of their gross reservations.
The reason this is significant is due to Vince Vitti's possible goal of a reverse merger of First Internet Travel with 800 Travel.
