Do you get points on a corporate rate?

The answer is pretty simple, you shouldn't!!! These are just different numbers which marketing has determined to send to prospective guests... we have the advantage of looking at all of them before we choose what suits our needs the best.

I've never heard of a corporate rate that didn't earn points!

Nice to know. I just need to spend more time on Google before I book a room next time.

By email dated September 1, 2011, addressed to Ambassadors, the following:

"Ambassador Exclusive: Earn up to 10,000 points. Register Now"

The more InterContinental® Hotels & Resorts you experience before 30 November the more bonus points you'll earn:

one property = 2,000 bonus points
two properties = 4,000 bonus points
three properties = 6,000 bonus points
four or more properties = 10,000 bonus points

I'm not sure that it was posted for you. Most of us don't have a corporate rate at the IC Le Grand.

First of all, I think that most international frequent travelers here on Flyertalk do have corporate discounts with airlines and hotels. Secondly, there are rates more favorable than best available, as I think most people here know.

I don't know of any flexible rates better than best flex, but perhaps you're right and more people here do have access to a competitive corporate rate than I thought
