TRAVEL
Hotels and airlines have rates they don't post.
Direct relationships, last-minute inventory, loyalty quirks. Mumm calls the hotel manager, not the OTA. We get the room you wanted, the perks you didn't know existed, and a rate that isn't on Booking.com.

PLAYBOOK
How Mumm runs this category.
01 · Research the merchant: brand standards, day-of occupancy, recent reviews
02 · Call the on-property revenue manager directly, not the central line
03 · Anchor against published rate plus competitor rates for the same dates
04 · Stack perks: late checkout, breakfast, room category, resort credit
05 · Package across partners — tours, transfers, dining — into one deal (47-multi-party-deals.md)
06 · Time the ask: 48-hour window typically nets the best concessions
