FWIW, I always do my research first and I'm usually able to tell them exactly what to book, and at what cost. For the times when an internet rate is lower than the FHR program, they will call and request the amenities and that rate.

I do think that the FT community as a whole has more travel knowledge than most travel agents, Centurion included.
The CTS agent that I talked to was not my assigned agent. I called on a Sunday and my assigned agent was not available.
