Yes, to make sure I was not going off a bad memory I checked on the AX website MR calculator to verify the exchange rate (not as good as the 2-1 through HA but better than 1-1)

Check FHR rates online!

another way to check rates >
http://flyertalk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=547625
FHR codes that work directly on hotel websites
I HATE calling FHR , they ask you 10 mins of questions before they even look for rates!
I'd appreciate a brief Step by step tutorial on how to navigate this.
I tried the Sweede site and had trouble.

Hi writetorich,

Unfortunately,this URL is no longer available.
If you would like to use the AmEx Online system,you can use DE CENT/PLAT or FR online website.

If you use that systems, you can know some rates(FHR,SLH,Centurion program rates,etc)

thanks,
masahiro

Wouldn't that only be more reason to make a FHR-booking possible online?

are there any free AMADEUS online portal/search things in the US?

theyd have to develop the infrastructure and have tech support.

maybe its just random / policy, like US not having SLH contract etc, and some companies doing some things strictly over phone or internet etc.

who knows..
