than not you will use toll-free numbers.
D A good way to avoid disappointment during a trip and be sure to have the exact
dates and places of your choice for your vacation. You may even get rebates
or discounts on your favourite activities.
E If you use these, there is no need for you to make long-distance calls. They are
totally free of charge for all users.
