Travel Jargon

by Mary Jo Manzanares on August 28th, 2006

Every business and industry has its own special language.  Sometimes it’s full of acronymns, other times just jargon.

USA Today takes a humorous look at the jargon of travel.  My favorite:

Yield management n. a sophisticated technological mechanism used by airlines and other travel companies to determine fair pricing; also known as dart board

Some of it may just hit a little too close to home to be funny, though.
