And we can expect an average daily rate of $147 per night in the first quarter of 2023. voice-verified

So prices are staying about the same. voice-verified

Right. voice-verified

But when it comes to travel, people do want to spend their money having those experiences. voice-verified

And so there is still a lot of competition for hotel rooms, for airfare, and there's a lot of interest from travelers. voice-verified

So that means don't hold out just hoping that the flights are going to get cheaper and cheaper. voice-verified

If you find a fare that works for your budget and your schedule, you should book it. voice-verified

Thanks again for having me. voice-verified
