How is this a yahoo answers violation?

Question

Question: Cheap plane tickets?

Question Details: Want to go from PHL to Portland, Reno, or San Francisco. The date to leave would be 8/13/08 and then return 8/17/08. What is the cheapest I could get?

Deleted Answer: Try Priceline as they offer great deals on flights. You can choose your own airline, date and flight. You can save more with Name Your Price, last minute deals and prices are dropping inside track, check internet for details.

My suggestions: compare airlines, flight times, dates, is it cheaper to fly certain time of the day, weekends or during the week (it might make a difference leaving a few days earlier or later) and non-stop flights. Another good tip is to shop & compare Priceline’s website with the Airline’s Website. I hope that helps and answers your question. Have a safe flight.

how is this a violation? how else do you answer it?

Answer 1

the answer (wording) sounds like an advertisement

Answer 2

"You can save more with Name Your Price, last minute deals and prices are dropping inside track, check internet for details."

This was probably the straw that broke the camel's back. Too much details and too advertorial.

Answer 3

try looking up flight tickets at different airlines then compare the prices.

good luck!

bye!

Answer 4

Maybe someone thought it was a bot posting advertising for priceline?
