I've done this 2-3 times when I was maybe 5-10 over the 29 minutes, and they've never said no, but YMMV - and keep in mind that it might take them 10+ minutes to actually check you in which makes things worse (at least one of those occasions I did arrive within 29 minutes, but didn't get checked-in until after that, pushing it to an extra hour/day)
Thanks, docbert, appreciate it. Is it true if you pay and book with AMEX Platinum code you get free 4 hour grace period? Reference below.
