But we actually got some things from that meeting.
And you can just go down to a travel agent and speak to them about where you're going.
So one thing you can do is you can look at the... Again, I'm just telling you how to save money on these things, but it's kind of what the podcast is about.
You can look at the hotels or the airfares or the airlines on the particular comparison websites and then go direct to the hotel operator.
Because if you go direct to the hotel operator, they actually keep more of the money.
And what they are more likely to do is...
They're more likely to give you an upgrade or give you a special deal because they're not paying for the comparison site referral fee or commission or whatever it is.
So you can go direct to them and say, hey, I saw this price here.
What can you do?
Can you upgrade us a room for the same price?
All those types of questions.
One more final little quirky thing that you might be able to do is you might be able to create an email address.
We might have an email address.
that's kind of like the travel department.
So you might have like for business, you might have travel at rask.com.au, right?
And then you book with that email address and they see that and they're kind of like, oh, maybe this is someone from the travel department or, you know, something like this.
And then it gives them the impression that, hey, maybe we should really, you know, wine and dine this person because they might be, you know, consistent business lead for us.
Let's give them a better deal.
