Abstract: The present invention generates a concise display of travel products, received from an inventory system, that are associated with potentially erroneous fare prices. Specifically, embodiments of the present invention compare travel product sales parameters such as, for example, price and sales volume, to averages of comparable sales parameters from stored and/or real-time data in order to identify and/or display travel products having pricing and/or sales volume that differs substantially from comparable average sales parameters. Thus, the present invention may alert an operator of the system of potentially erroneous fare prices that may be displayed to a customer in response to a search for travel products.
