I hope this will be the end of such posts, particularly when they are coming from the same company/agency. As was pointed out, we welcome travel companies to read these posts and provide their side of the story, or help resolve problems, and offer us real hints. But I have seen no evidence of this being so in your case. This was a pure and simple plug for a commercial operation.

As for your hint about eating prior to flights because you may not get a meal on connecting flights..., that isn't exactly the type of helpful messages we were getting at. I dare say, 75% of us spend more time on airplanes than anyone at Priceline or its PR agency, and we know a bit about inflight service levels. You can post such things on more general travel sites, but don't clutter FlyerTalk, please.

And while we're at it, even though I am a Canadian, my feelings about seeing William Shatner appearing in your ads falls into the unprintable remarks category. You might suggest to your bosses they find another ad agency. I suspect he chases business away from your company!
