New Airfare Search Engine Attracts More Than 4.6 Million Users and Exits Beta

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., July 7 /PRNewswire/ -- Fly.com(TM), the world's most
easy-to-use airfare search engine, today announced that Internet users
performed over 2.4 million searches on Fly.com in the month of June, growing
user searches by 85% month over month.

"After only five months of operation, we are exiting our beta release with a
large and growing community of users," said Brian Clark, General Manager,
Fly.com. "The ease-of-use, speed, and simplicity that we offer are clearly
winning people over."

Fly.com offers users unique information and content, in online travel search,
including:
    --  First class fares on all searches;
    --  Airline product information, such as in-flight entertainment;
    --  Prices that include all taxes and fees; and
    --  Travel deals published by Travelzoo(R), the global leader in travel
        deals publishing, which are specifically relevant to each airfare
        search.




According to Fly.com's internal statistics, 4.6 million travelers have used
Fly.com since its launch in February.

Fly.com attributes the growth in site traffic to its ability to satisfy users'
appetite for information on both price and product. In addition to finding the
best prices available, Fly.com is the only airfare search engine to show all
airlines' lowest price by cabin on the first results page, via its
one-of-a-kind "At-A-Glance" summary display.

"As an independent search engine, Fly.com is able to focus on the user
experience and act as a consumer advocate, as if we were your 'friend in the
business,'" said Clark. "We are not a booking engine. By comparing multiple
booking sources, including airlines and online travel agencies, we are able to
offer fantastic content and the best fares available in just one search."
