Efficiency innovations like this one are ever more important as fuel costs continue to rise, so it's wise of United to make this sizable investment.

If you thought Priceline was the largest publicly traded travel company in the world by market cap, you'd be very wrong. Two Taiwanese airlines and a global hotel and casino business boast greater bragging rights.
