This may be a big IF. I realize that some posters have expressed the hope that the increased C&P rates will have the effect of enticing hotels to open up more availability, but in reality this may or may not happen. Note that the changes are not tied to a
requirement to open up additional C&P availability, so very likely some hotels will increase availability, while others will not. My bet is that we will see less of an improvement than many expect (especially at properties that have traditionally been problematic).
