I've only used the travel agency once. It was very simple. I used an
online search engine to decide on the flights I wanted to take, sent an
email to the travel agency, and got the electronic tickets back. The
main benefit is that there's no need to pay the travel costs myself and
wait for reimbursement. I assume that from Canonical's POV, it also
makes thing simpler since it's likely that there's only one large bill
from the travel agency to handle.
I don't think that the agency was used for non-sponsored attendees, but
I might be wrong.
