- How much revenue will IFLY generate from registering people individually?

Plenty. By taking their money individually. That's the business model. Did you never understand that?
Amazing!

CNBC reported that interactive sites will be a main feature in 1999.
IFLY will be percieved as the leader of a new generation of websites.

Blankmind:

In your post 3021 you had expressed your concern that the management was hiding something. Now that they have announced an interactive site per their commitment you want to go back to the business model itself.

The way I understand is that the interactive site will give confidence to novice internet users to book the flights at low fares and at the same time provide higher commissions to the agency. IFLY is part of a 12Billion dollar industry. The explosive growth in sales proves the fact that their model is working. It seems that management is concerned that they may not be able to handle the flurry of enquiries, which is a better problem than not having any callers.

So the business is there, the revenues are there, the company is properly capitalized and it is ahead of competition in technology.

Have faith. If you think that the model is faulty short it and good luck to you.
