Totally agree MSPeconomist. I'm not worried... as I have the cancel policy shown in email. I was just surprised it shows as such since *Wood stated they were changing cancel policies to be 6pm day prior. But apparently this doesn't affect AAA which is being treated (or at least can be treated) as a negotiated rate if a property desires.
Based on this it appears this change in policy primarily affects BAR Flexible rates - which likely are rarely booked by anyone with AAA, AARP, Gov't or SET. Not to mention it doesn't affect any special prepaid offers like hot escapes, or 2 for 3 , etc.
