If it were only that easy. The on-line card you referenced will only "assist in identifying you as a government traveler." Sometimes, I am not asked to produce a government ID and sometimes I am. On ocassion, they have xeroxed my ID. ICH used to issue a plastic government rate card, but have moved to this new on-line version. My only word of caution is that if you are not a governement or military employee, you are venturing at your own risk.
