Cancelling Callbacks
If I have an offer I'm going to accept, I should cancel all my additional scheduled callbacks, even if the firms have already booked my travel for them, correct?

Additional non-money point, but cancelling a callback could lead the firm to offer that callback to the next person down the list, so your classmates will be grateful.
