But, for those of you who really do a lot of travel (and who are very sophisticated with business) there is an option to pay $300 per month with full ticketing and you get 100% of the commissions. So if you spend at least $10,000 per month on travel, this might be worthwhile.
Sorry, I forgot about th $199 sign up fee, they seem to periodically run "no sign up fee" specials.
Since there's no commissions on air travel for the most part, I have no problem with them taking 10% of nothing. I just write off the $40 a month off as part of my flying hobby and don't worry about trying to make it back. I've never earned a single commission on anything I've booked (I just book myself and occaisionally my family)
To me the value is much more in having access to things like the routing rules and then being able to book very complicated routes without hassle.
The other place I looked at when I thinking about signing up was:
Incentive Connection Travel They responded quickly to some questions I had and seemed like good people. They are only Sabre however.
