jetsfan92588, I'm sure the experience was annoying and humiliating at the same time. Not knowing the full circumstances, it's difficult to render opinion but it seems your fellow FT'ers are right. Always have backup CC's and know that it's customary for hotels to 'authorize' up to double your total rate for incidentals.
