The site you want is run by LOSTFAN108 a secret employee of abc ,

"Only a few people will no my true identity." -- either that is a clue, or he is a very very bad speller. There are other odd capitalizations in that spoiler, but they appear to be just sloppy typing. I'm going to research a bit more, to see if ABC-TV really employs people in secret.

My gut tells me that the domain was registered by a fan group. The site is running off FreeForums.org

I interpreted it as meaning that he was secretly revealing things from the inside, and ABC didn't know who it was. Not that ABC secretly employs him or her...

I suppose, it's nothing. A fan generated content.
Because good ingame websites look like they haven't any relation to the product (slusho.jp for example) Wink

 		Dug up some Dirt.
I went to check out that lost108 site. Found a name connected to it. Name is Jim Reardon. He seems to own a Communications company. Was looking around then found another website ( amusive.net) It seems that someone used it for mass commercial email. It's expired now. I then found him using a GoDaddy address. URLCUT.com. They all have the same business address.

Reardon, Jim
Amusive Communications
9610 NE 179th Pl #1
Redmond, Washington 98052
United States
8157443119

Called the number, got the Jim Reardon voicemail. I think this is a legit company, Nothing to do with Lost. Maybe just a fan throwing together a little site to create a buzz. Then again I could be entirely wrong.

 		I don't believe Its Mr. Reardon from the Simpsons
I Haven't found a connection for this to be the Jim Reardon from the Simpsons. If anyone does let me know. I found this bio for Jim Reardon at the Link below. I'm not to sure how reliable it is.

 		Re: LOST(fan)108
there was a person in the past couple of years that (seemingly) has insider info (or access to scripts) that posted using the SN lostfan108 (HERE for more info). Long story short, they 'spoiled' both season 3 & 4's finales. Since then, there have been MANY pretenders-to-the-throne. So if anywhere you see 'lostfan' please reach for your salt. And to be sure, since TLE (I believe), there has never been a site officially related to any of the LOST properties that did not contain a link to wdig's (walt disney internet group's) privacy policy and other legal mumbo-jumbo .

 		Yay.
The Page for the airlines is updated awsomely.

If you watch the ticker thing on the front page it says 'Get Lost' at one point.

 		A summary
I'm am going to put most of this behind spoiler tags because it's still rather new and many may not have seen it yet.

    Seoul, Korea, 32°, 4:36am

The Sky Club Card #
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
112 114 111 109 111
When used as Alt-codes it spells out
p r o m o


The Video
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Contains a one frame shot of the following
http://i43.tinypic.com/2n5aa8.jpg (I didn't post the pic directly here because it overrides the spoiler tag)
given the passage coded into the /home page source I spec that the writing says 'John'. If any one can give some conformation on that and what language it is, it'd be appreciated.


The News Scroller
Presented in the same manner as on the /home page, save for the capitalized font.
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Ajira introduces new destinations for island hoppers and arctic
adventurers. News - South Pacific Triangle : pilots and sailors
avoid a new Pacific location trouble area. News - Get Lost
anywhere in the world Ajira Airways introduces "Destination :
Destiny" News - Discover Down Under : The Australian Outback
is home to all sorts of characters, ancient secrets and
hopping wallabies - Watch Out! Welcome to AjiraAirways.com


Boarding Pass
There are hieroglyphs, trigrams, airport codes, and map co-ordinates.
First the airport codes:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
    LAX - Los Angeles International
    HND - Tokyo Haneda International
    GLR - Otsego County Airport (Gaylord, MI)
    GMP - Gimpo International (Seoul)
    BWU - Sydney Bankstown International
    GUM - Guam International
    PEK - Beijing Capital International

Next the map co-ordinates:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Along the the bar-code and the lower line that says 'Airline use' put them together and you get 13°29'02" N 144°47'50". Which is Guam International (GUM).

Now the trigram(s):
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
There maybe only one trigram presented in the four depictions, or it may be two distinct trigrams. If reading the top two trigrams from of top to bottom you get the trigram 'Ground' ('xùn'), with 'Wind' as it's nature, and 'Southeast' as it's direction. Other details of this trigram: Korean name 'Tui' ('The Joyous'), with 'Pleasure', 'Joy' and 'Attraction' as attributes, 'Sheep' as it's animal, related to the 'Mouth', and it's familial association is with the 'Youngest Daughter'.
Again reading from the top, on the two lower trigrams you get 'Open' ('duì'), with 'Swamp' as it's nature, and 'West' as it's direction. Other details of this trigram: Korean name 'Sun' (The Gentle), with 'Penetration' and 'Following' as attributes, 'Fowl' as it's animal, related to the 'Thigh', and it's familial association is with the 'Eldest Daughter'.
If you were to read either one from the bottom you would receive the other trigram.
The definitions taken from Lostpedia

And Finally, the hieroglyphs:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Reading from left-to-right and top-to-bottom the glyphs are:
    curl
    folded cloth
    vulture
    fire drill
    stick

According to the Gardiner Code and Lostpedia again.
Any help deciphering this one is greatly appreciated.


A Few Assorted Other Things
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
On the /flights page the flight numbers in the 'flight selection' options all add up to 10 and three of the five are variations of '316'.
The bar-code on the Boarding Pass reads '4815162342'
The name MacCutcheon pops-up in two different places on the site. The first on the Sky Club card is 'E.M. MacCutcheon' and on the /adventures page the stories are posted by 'Antonio B. MacCutcheon'.


Ok I think I'm done now Smile Hope someone can manage to book a flight sometime soon...

EDIT: Made a quick little pic of the boarding pass with the various elements pointed out (and yes I'm not a photoshop master Razz) http://i41.tinypic.com/mbl9j9.jpg (all of the above 'spoilers' about the pass are present in the pic - so click with caution)
