Abstract
This article describes the increase in income some airlines, such as Ryanair, are making on their website’s ancillary offerings, from hotel rooms or automobile rental, which are travel-related, to saving money on an energy bill or arranging for car insurance—bargains not usually associated with air travel. The author suggests that younger travelers are far more Internet-savvy, and airline websites, such as Ryanair.com, that realize their large audience is looking for bargains can sell a far wider market of products. The article includes an interview with the president of a consulting firm that has released a guide to the global ancillary revenue scene. The consultant notes that legacy carriers are far behind their younger upstarts because they turned to online travel agencies like Orbitz and Expedia and failed to develop their own content for their websites. Among legacy carriers there are exceptions: Air Canada has developed a set of products that allow it to promote and entice passengers, and Delta Air Lines is the most advanced of the major U.S airlines.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
