On June 27, 2002, the Office of Aviation and International Affairs issued a report to Congress on its efforts to monitor air travel services related to Orbitz. The Office of Inspector General (OIG) was directed by the House and Senate Transportation Appropriations Subcommittees in the Conference Committee Report on the DOT Appropriations bill for Fiscal Year (FY) 20021 to evaluate and comment on the Department’s findings. We have reviewed the Department’s report and evaluated the reasonableness and accuracy of the Department’s analysis and conclusions. We selectively verified data cited in the report to the information submitted to the Department by Orbitz’ airline-owners, Charter and non-Charter Associates,2 Global Distribution Systems (GDSs), and online travel agencies. In addition, we held discussions with and reviewed supplemental data submitted by online and brick-and-mortar travel agencies, Department officials, GDSs, and large and small carriers. We also conducted tests of online travel agencies to determine the validity of some of the claims Orbitz’ critics have made.
