She is completely correct regarding flights. ALL benefits honored.
I question her intel on hotels. I booked a hotel via AR and got nothing. If you book a hotel through AR you are prepaying the room from a third prty which all hotel programs say ones not get you points/stays/nights.
Regardless, I have not tried anything with UR, but learned AR stuff the hard way.
Good to hear. I book all my hotels through my companies travel site and I always get the points. I've never booked via the UR using UR pts where I would essentially "pay in advance". If I do it in the future, I will post the results!
