Rules regarding drip pricing are not specific to airlines. This is consistent with the Competition Act in general, although there is a bit of a different approach to mergers for the transport sector. Our rules for drip pricing are of general application. They apply to essentially all companies in the economy. These rules really go to the heart of making sure that consumers understand the products that are being offered to them and making sure that they're not misled. Drip pricing is really about making sure that consumers are being told the full amount of the price they're going to pay for the product, instead of being shown an initial price and then having additional fees added on in the rest of the purchasing process to the point that the final price is something that would have been unattainable compared to what was first advertised.
