Are they being serious? It's 'ethical' to charge more for (A->B) and less for (A->B->C)? Do they even think about these things before they say them?
In response to the comment from the airline, no, it's like buying a pant & shirt combo set for $40 when the same exact pants sell for $70 and then throwing away the shirt.
How is that unethical exactly?
(A site that helps you search for the stuff you can't find would be cool. Like "Google Answers" or whatever it was called.)
Also, linking to their websites? I just don't understand how suggesting ways/ideas for consumers to save money is fraudulent. Then again, Southwest airlines threatened to sue me for checking people into their flights, so maybe I just don't get it.
Their lack of foresight does not constitute a problem that I am required to solve, unless they want to pay me for it.
