My assumption is, I was on some kind of bulk fare. Is this how they (at least, sometimes) work? Or, have times changed?
I wonder if the TA agents even know what they are selling, or if it's so secretive that they aren't even aware of the exact product they are selling to the end customer.... based on a couple previous posts, I am not sure.
