Then should be up to the consumer to do the background and find if the advertiser someone they want to use.

Also, it looks like it is run by Pace communications http://pacecommunications.com and it looks like they also are the ones behind DL, UA, US and VX's inflight magazines.

Finally, IMhO I would never see a doctor based on an airline mag ad.
