It sounds like the senate is just really poorly organized. When you have all of these people doing all of this travel, why is each senator making their own travel arrangements?
Individual senators shouldn't be buying tickets in packs of 10 or 12. Administrators in the senate should be making deals with airlines for the hundreds of flights taken by all of the senators each year. They should be getting preferential rates, not what appears to be the worst rates possible.
which is usually right beside the stove so they can tell what time it is.And it might help a bit if the wives remained at home close to the sink!
At the sink they can draw water to boil on the stove to do the laundry and the floors so their exhausted husband/spouse/partner/appendage comes home to a tidy organized environment for his recouperation and enjoyment. The Senators deserve no such consideration.

WestJet doesn't have first class. Come fall Jetlines will beat WestJet by around half for airfares.MPs have a set number of flights that they can take their significant other with them on between Ottawa and home. I always thought the same rule applied to the senate. That being said one would think a deal could be made for bulk buying. They can also hitchhike on military flights
COuld be CBC never bothered to check exactly what the rule are before exposing the spending.
I seriously don't get why senators get to travel at all besides going home. There should be so many trips home allowed that is paid per year and the rest should be picked up by the senator. It would limit his expenses and we wouldn't need to audit their a$$es, which that too would save us money. Hell that should be the same for every MP. There is a Club Med mentality with the Canadian taxpayers money.
Who is approving the POs?
Most large companies have travel agents on staff who find the most cost effective and efficient way of getting employees from point A to B.Everyone or no one. Take your pick. DOes make you wonder why government has none of the checks and balance private companies have. Or even a logistics dept. to take care of travel.

Why bother? Just get us peons to pay for it all.That is why I wonder why the government doesn't.
