Last I heard price-fixing was still illegal under the antitrust laws. How come all airlines have raised their unrestricted LAX-LAS fares from $99 to $109?
Anybody here work for the Justice Department?. . .
Your snippet is inaccurate. The "they" Joeypete is referring to is HP management, not the competitors. HP has said (to employees) that they're not interested in fare wars. The company has been very public about that stance since they overhauled their fare structure a few years ago.
Now, how they act when they have the ability to raise fares is for another thread. . .
