United dumps the lower yield inventory on US. US does similar to UA In a message dated 2/23/2006 10:17:51 PM Central Standard Time, blaine@xxxxxxxx writes: When doing a search tonight for airfares, I found several US Air fares that were considerably ($300-$400) cheaper than their United Airlines counterpart. All of these less expensive itineraries were US Air flight numbers, but really United Airlines airplanes, etc. Why such a discrepancy? I'm sure this has been discussed, but I'm finding nothing in either list archive.
