Its to bad that some airlines have to wreak games by flooding markets. If a market is already full why add 200% more flights. The reason they do that is to make sure smaller airlines never have a chance to play a full game.  Thanks to airlines like Albertair

I thought it was illegal to go more than 100 or so over demand for exactly that reason?

It's actually called competition.
Maybe we should all be in one big alliance and agree on what routes we should take prior to the game beginning, at least then we all win, or do we?

It amazes me how people keep suggesting ways to even the game out, perhaps its the 'every player gets a prize' mentality, where does that leave competition and strategies?

Can you imagine the same being applied to sports...oh look you tried, so here is a gold medal for you as well.....defeats the purpose of improving yourself and striving to achieve don't you think?
