South Park International Airways wants to check on customer satisfaction with ticket prices and fees. As a large airline, it has over 1800 flights a day from fifteen different airports. Their in-house researchers, Kyle and Stan, randomly choose thirty flights (two departing flights from each airport) and survey all the passengers on those flights concerning their satisfaction, giving them a snack and beverage voucher which can be redeemed immediately upon turning in the survey. The researchers are ecstatic to note a ninety-seven percent survey completion rate. What type of sample is this?
