Although I guess there are other possible explanations why people have not responded to my questions, I'm wondering if perhaps I have been too explicit about the assignment. I believe I have tried to stay firmly in the domain of requirements definition/interpretation.
Anyway, I have another question about the Prepare Itinerary use case: are the responses of the system in the first and second steps (flight search results and alternate priced Itineraries) structurally the same accept that in the second the flight itineraries have not been priced? Ofcourse the business rules creating the second response is quite different than the first, but what I'm wondering is are the two result sets basically itineraries or am I missing something?

Hi Sean,
I looked at your postings and in my opinion your questions mainly pertain to clarification of requirements and not discussion of the solution. I would consider this within limits.
As for your question goes... Both the results would be similar except for what goes on behind the scenes to produce the results and the additional attributes that you may want to display depending on the Itinerary's state.

Sean, yeah u can take them as structurally same. OR if i put it in another way, u can get a list of flight value objects as ur search results and then the same objects have their price field updated when u r getting alt priced itineraries. Although u might have a diff pattern here to hold objects. Hope it clears ur doubt !!
