also, about the money that flyi is trying not to give back to the customer to pay next day's bills.

most people pay for airline tickets with credit cards. do you agree?

the airline does not recieve money from that credit cards until the flight has departed. it is held in a hold account until the flight is closed out at the end of the night. if a flight was july, the airline would not get the $$$ until july. i'm not an expert at revenue accounting but i've been in the industry a while and that's how it was explained to me

i'll look into those flights and do a little investigating and see what i can come up with. you've got a friend in the biz
