No award seats on UA from OZ between now and March 1 2006 in Business or First.
Obviously making the $$$.
Also, heard UA is reducing travel agents comissions from 9% currently to 7%.
Surprising move considering that they are not advertising fare sales to the general public, but are using travel agents to bulk deals together and sell packages and flights, yet reduce their comms.
