I would have thought that the airlines would *not* be keen on sharing data on customers.
e.g. Does UA really want AA to know how often I fly SFO-BOS (and the fare basis for those trips)? AA could then decide to do a targeted mailing to me touting their flights on that route including MRTC and powerports in coach.
That's just one example...I can think of many more nefarious...</font>
Exactly right Blatherin'. In fact if I recall correctly, that is exactly what Virgin (successfully) sued BA over in Britain about 8-10 years ago. Maybe someone else recalls more of the details.
