Frequently Asked Accommodation Questions
Additional assistance required?
What is the Self-Registration Travel Portal?
The Self-Registration Portal (known as YOUR.CT) is an online platform designed to facilitate your travel arrangements for the Hort Connections Conference. It allows you to conveniently book both flights and accommodation in one place, through the online booking tool named Savi.
How can I access YOUR.CT Portal & Savi?
Upon registering, you will be provided with a link to Self-Register to gain access to YOUR.CT and the Savi Travel Portal. This link will be provided within your registration confirmation email. To begin the self-registration process and access the Travel Portal, click on this link HERE. Please ensure you have the Company Code readily available as you complete your profile details.
What is the Company Code?
The Company Code is Z15I-HC24
This Code is mandatory and must be used when Self-Registering. You will be able to use any email address, however your Primary work email address is preferable.
Why is my email address not accepting as Username, and how can I resolve this issue?
Your email address may already be associated with another Flight Centre Travel Group Corporate Booking site. To resolve this, you can either use a different email address or add ‘+1’ to your business email address or your email with domain @gmail.com or @outlook.com. (eg., firstname_surname+1@gmail.com). For further assistance, please contact the Corporate Traveller Support Team.
When I select ‘BOOK ONLINE’ I receive an 'invalid attempt to perform SSO validation has been detected' error. Why is this?
The system requires your profile to sync before you can start making bookings. This can be instantaneous most of the time, however it may take up to 5-20 minutes to sync. Please reach out to your Corporate Traveller Support team if you have any issues after this grace period.
What airlines are available for booking through the portal?
We have negotiated special rates with Qantas for your flights. You can book these negotiated rates through the portal. Please note that Qantas sale fares will not be discounted. All other domestic carriers will also be available to book.
Are there accommodation options available in the portal?
Yes, we have sourced special rates for the Conference at 10 preferred properties. These properties will be highlighted in green for your convenience when selecting your hotel. Please refer to our website for an in depth review on these properties and to learn about the rates negotiated.
Can I choose other accommodation options not listed as preferred properties?
Absolutely. While preferred properties are highlighted, you can explore other options, and if there's a cheaper rate available elsewhere, it will be displayed for you to book as well!
How do I add my credit card information to my profile?
You can securely add your credit card information by navigating to the Travel Profile tab on the left side menu within the portal. Then select the Personal tab and follow the instructions.
Can I add my credit card information during the booking process?
Yes, you can also add your credit card details on the final page of the booking process when making your reservations. Your credit card will need to be added for each supplier you book if you have not preloaded the card into your profile.
Are there terms and conditions I need to review before confirming my booking?
Yes, you will have the opportunity to review all terms and conditions when selecting options and before finalising your entire booking on the final page. We encourage you to read them carefully as each supplier has their own Terms & Conditions.
Are there any fees with booking through Corporate Traveller?
Booking your travel online through the Online Portal via Corporate Traveller does not incur any service fees and is quick and easy. However, if you prefer to make your booking directly with your Travel Manager - Paige Dwyer, there will be a charge of $35+ GST per person per booking, which will also apply for any changes made post booking.
Can I make changes to my bookings after they're confirmed?
Please review the terms and conditions for the specific policies regarding changes to your booking. Some bookings may be modifiable, while others may have restrictions. Please note that all fees and costs related to alterations or cancellations are subject to the terms and conditions of the respective supplier.
