#2I find expedia.com to be equally terrible in this regard. In fact I have found that most travel oriented websites suffer from extremely poor UX, be they hotels, airlines, bus or train services.
I can understand the smaller hotels or bus companies, but there is no excuse for the larger players. The article is a bit presumptive in the cost, but it has to be affecting their bottom line.

#4When numbers get large, the more the little things start to matter. It must be exciting to see the changes happen live in front of you when you flick these 'little' switches.

it's a financial notation, which bothers me too.

Pretty standard/common practice.
When discussing certain quantities, including money, it's common to use MM such as $100MM.

#10My main gripe about the vast majority of travel websites is the complete lack of an "anywhere" option in the destination field. Sometimes I have a week off work, a set amount of cash and don't necessarily care where I go. I just want to see all possibilities for destinations/flights etc. I think SkyScanner is the only site I've seen this option on.
