(Whiteboard: [uaoverride] [country-all] [sitewait][serversniff])

cheaptickets.com serves a desktop site to B2G. Bug 823364 added an UA override for this domain. The override should be removed once the domain serves mobile content to B2G. This bug tracks the evangelism for the site to recognize the B2G UA and the removal of the override at that time.
Whiteboard: [uaoverride]
Testing with Firefox for Android.

1. Enter http://www.cheaptickets.com/
2. We are introduced the first with a splash for downloading an Android app
3. Second time we come or if we say "no thanks", We receive mobile content NO Redirection.

The detection is happening server side. The content is different depending on the user agent. Note if we had tests (HEAD is not working properly)

Contacted someone from Orbitz (Cheaptickets.com belongs to Orbitz) to see if we could be put in contact with people managing the servers.
