Is there more money for Farecompare's management in serving the needs of companies over individuals? Airline clients and/or other advertising clients can be more of a revenue stream than researching individuals that will pick up the info and shop around elsewhere with that information in mind.

Isn't this the company whose management went on record in support of the TSA? Either way, industry/firm apologist and TSA apologist aren't always that far apart when it comes to matters of air travel.

I'm disappointed to see it go even if it is just for a holiday.
