Canarsie - you should know that when a hotel says that your room is "guaranteed with a credit card" it doesn't mean guaranteed for you, it means the hotel is guaranteed to charge you for it, even if you don't show up. This is a common misconception.</font>
Thank you for the information,
g_leyser - I do greatly appreciate it. However, I did already know that bit of information. I realize that the hotel is guaranteed to charge me for that room even if I do not show up, but I also know the hotel
cannot charge my credit card if I do show up but do not get a room. Good thing I showed up!

More discussion of this issue, and MANY others in this thread [URL=http://www.flyertalk.com/travel/fttravel_forum/Forum11/HTML/007472.html[/b]</font>
I knew that also, the instant I saw your FlyerTalk handle. I have already read most of the thread to which you refer. You are a valuable asset to the FlyerTalk community. Thank you again!
