Before: FARRIS, FERGUSON, and THOMPSON, Circuit Judges.


FARRIS, Circuit Judge:

Official Airline Guides appeals from the district court's judgment after a bench trial finding that the use by Mindy Goss, Ashbyweb Ltd., and other defendants ("Ashbyweb") of the phrases "THE TRAVEL PLANNER USA" and "USA TRAVEL PLANNER" did not infringe OAG's trademark "OAG TRAVEL PLANNER." Ashbyweb cross-appeals from the district court's finding that Ashbyweb infringed OAG's mark by using the phrase "THE TRAVEL PLANNER," standing alone.
