I do find it interesting that a few properties are walking back the resort fees "temporarily". That is good in that any public discussion of this fraudulent practice further illuminates its existence to begin with, as much of the traveling public is still relatively unaware of it. More internet traffic about it could lead to mainstream media which could eventually lead to policy makers weighing the actual needs of their constituents against the money they receive from the hospitality industry. (OK, that may be wishful thinking, but still...)

While any petition will be useless, booking.com could be coming to the rescue. Could this be the beginning of the end for resort fees?
