You don't know anything, and never did - just consider your ``legal
opinion'' that e-ticket is an oral promise, and that an e-ticket is
not a written contract.
Why dontcha take this legal opinion to IATA? They'll be delighted
to learn that (quote) ``an e-ticket is not a written contract.''
Tell them about California statute of frauds, while you are at it.
Sure, you're clearly a well-qualified legal expert.
I am not a legal expert, I just know more about e-tickets than a failed
lawyer who thinks that ``an e-ticket is an oral promise.''
As I said (though I understand you have trouble with content as well
as context), in 2000, when I made those comments, etickets were mad
eon the phone and no written confirmations were provided.
In 2000, e-tickets were bought online and booked by travel agents.
Even when they were booked by phone, airlines always provided e-mail,
fax and postal-mail confirmations. There was *never* a time when
e-tickets were not accompanied by written confirmations.
I've got a stack of written e-ticket receipts and confirmations going
back to at least 1997, if not earlier. All you've got is a diploma from
a fourth-rate law school noone has heard about, and the delusion that
it gives the force of law to any nonsense opinion you happen to hold.
You like a lance corporal who, when he barges into a pub, demands to
be addressed as ``Mr. Staff Sergeant-Major, Sir!''
Do take your legal opinions to IATA. Tell them that an e-ticket is
not a written contract, then let us know where they tell ya to stick it
