I don't question a word you write, however Under this scenario, a gov't employee should not be able to accept a gov't rate at a hotel, airline, etc.. as none of these are offered to the gen'l public. So I find it hard to believe that Fed employees will receive any backlash from enrolling in this promo. I'll look in the JTR and see if there is anything that contradicts this statement, there must be something in there about gov't rates..

That is interesting, because I just read:

"Government travelers cannot accept special promotional items that are not available to the general public. Promotional material must be obtained under the same terms as those offered to the general public and must be at no additional Government cost," according to implementing instructions from the Per Diem, Travel And Transportation Allowance Committee, a Department of Defense activity.
