However, I don't think he had enough time to look closely at any of the reservations beyond "sure looks like he has a lot of activity coming up".

I believe the single deciding factor is that you have not done any of the "taste"-type promotion within the last twelve months. All others are just fluffy to make you feel that you are important.
