Fly now, save later with trading stamps

Air Florida, an upstart airline, announced it will become the nation's first line to begin giving trading stamps, starting next week.
An airline official said that since 11 airlines offer basically the same fare and the same service, the company was looking for a way to give the carrier a competitive edge. Passengers can collect books of stamps that will be worth money off a plane ticket.
