Good question.
Imagine this: You have a boisterous and vivacious extended family overseas that you've never met. And you - with your busy schedule and relentless multi-tasking - may never get to meet them unless someone comes along and says:

Catch a flight
Go and meet them...
and I'll pick up the tab!
Another good question, and here is the answer: No catch, nada, nothing, zilch, zero.
