I know the GM of a hotel in Bahrain, and I can tell you that if you know this man, when you are there, you do get special treatment.

They say in life it's not what you know but who you know -it's human nature to help out your colleagues/friends, and it's not really hurting anyone (ok maybe costs BA £10 if that, I can deal with it).
