2007年Interview(5/5)-英语听力

[00:00.00]Yeah, this is something travelers have to remember when they plan their trips. [00:04.00]And another thing, get to know a good travel agent [00:07.69]and make sure he gives you the best possible service. [00:11.39]Take discounts for example. [00:13.43]A good travel agent can get first class tickets for the price of business class. [00:19.31]This is because he does enough volume of business, [00:22.81]and he can get discounts with airlines on his own behalf. [00:27.16]He should pass them on to you. [00:28.95]So make sure he indeed does. [00:32.00]I think the worst part of a trip is having to travel overnight [00:36.26]or being stuck for a weekend in some dreadful place. [00:39.80]Are there any ways of avoiding that? [00:42.02]Yes. A weekend break or a stopover in a more relaxing or lively place [00:47.90]is often available at a special cheap weekend rate. [00:51.87]Various airlines and hotel chains offer these, and it's always more pleasant [00:57.28]to stay the night in a hotel than on a plane even if you travel business class. [01:02.82]Yes. OK. Thank you Nigel for all the useful information and advice. [01:07.89]Pleasure.
