That is an ethical dilemma, isn't it? On the one hand, you want max points, and on the other hand, if your client ever finds out that you are not getting his/her company the lowest rate possible (within the bounds of your contract), then you might not keep that client very long. If it is easy to find a range of rates, and the client ever looked up rates for that hotel, and found out that you were booking a $249/night rate, when a $189 or $199 rate was consistently available, how long do you think you will have that client?
