Cameron Dixon works for the City Public Library. The city has negotiated a set of special airfares
Question:
Cameron Dixon works for the City Public Library. The city has negotiated a set of special airfares with various airlines for city employees to use when traveling on city business. These fares are lower, and they do not have restrictions on changing, cancellation, and so forth. Cameron is aware that the airlines never check to see if she is on city business when she books such a fare. She has decided that she would like to go to Alaska on short notice for a well-earned mini-vacation. When she checks the Internet for airfares, she discovers that the cheapest fare she can find is $800 per person. However, the fare for city employees traveling on business to Alaska is only $500.
