E-tickets are not written contracts if there is no writing, and there
is no writing when they are booked by phone. You do know the
definition of "writing," don't you?

Question...

E - tickets purchased on the Internet - or by phone - from AA (and I
suppose most other airlines) are followed by an email from the airline to
the purchaser acknowledging the details of the purchase (and transmitting
a
link to the conditions of carriage). I am of the impression that the
acknowledgement describing and defining the purchase consitutes the legal
equivalent of a contract. Apparently, acknowledgements of transactions
do
constitute contracts in some other tranactions mentioned in the UCC.

By the way, where is your law degree from? Where are you authorized
to practice law?

Sorry for the additional follow-up.

The UCC applies only as between _merchants_.

Huh?
So, I guess lines like the following are meaningless?
"(e) If one of the parties to a transaction is a consumer, the following
rules apply"

WRONG

What section of the UCC (which stands for "Uniform _Commercial_ Code" are
you looking at?
