Answer 1

Location, price, and consumer preferences.

Answer 2

This was probably just happenstance since the technology was just as available to hotels at the time that American Airlines built the first revenue management system in travel and tourism. However, airlines, which have historically been less profitable than hotels, in general may have felt a bit more urgency in maximizing revenue.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
