Just last night, a special promotional airline code for those attending a softball tournament sponsored by the airline was posted on another 'deal' website and a number of people took advantage of it to book tickets to Asia. They all got great deals until the number of seats offered by the airline for that promotion ended. So if any of the families of girls attending the tournament expect to get their 30% off today, they are out of luck. Apparently, a new promo code has been issued for that group, worth far less ($20 off a transcon, instead of 30% off.)

Welcome to the internet era where targeted promos are no longer a secret; if a company wants to ensure that targeted promos are kept to a specific group they have to put more controls in place than they currently have.. such is life
