Answer 1

Aggregators are also known as meta-search firms who conduct searches for customers and direct them to the best-buy products that the customers specify.

Answer 2

Lodging guests will be less price-sensitive when another party pays for their stay. This is called the shared-cost effect and the customer may upgrade to a more expensive property because he/she is not paying.
