M.R. Davis, Thanks for your long reply. I wonder but there may be another economical reason for limited expansion. The airlines have seats at very good prices, but in limited numbers. For them to make money on those seats, they must sell other seats at higher prices. I don't know where the balance point is, but if more and more people buy tickets via IFLY, seat prices must rise at some point or airlines loose profitability. IFLY would gradually loose their advantage as they grow bigger. How big could IFLY's market share be before this occurs? As for logins, I would expect that most people following this thread have registered by now. Have anyone received confirmation since the announcement Dec-31? Please let everybody know! Absence of such posts is a concern to me (as you imply, Razorbak...). M.R Davis, as a test pilot, don't you have access to the new site? If I were you, I would have tried right away after the announcement. Please let us know... By the way, can you easily use IFLY's service to obtain a quote, then log-off and do some comparison shopping, then come back to IFLY and refer to previous quote? A human relationship may be god, but what I don't like is to be pressed for a purchase...
