So you think if the reservation was made in UK then it would be a different story? I'll give it a shot.
Thanks

UK/EU-based TA should do better than having to open a bank account without residency. You can open a bank account in UK (not illegal in USA as long as you declare it on your Tax Return but may be iffy under UK law) but it is a major pain. Putting a line of credit on top is stretching it.
