NPR states the following:

When You Check-in
Please be prepared to show proof of eligibility for your rate (such as a membership card, corporate or government identification card, or proof of your age).

They term the rate as "VIP Athletic Rate"

Based on this info, I don't believe that the rate would be a publicly available one.

It's pretty well-known that NPR produces all sorts of rates. You have to read the fine-print on each one to determine whether you are entitled to use it. Clearly, booking the one that requires a VIP card - unless you have the card - will not be honored by the front desk unless they make a serious mistake.

NPR usually shows the AAA rates. NPR also shows a lot of $0 rates - certificate stays. Sometimes it shows other promotions that are available to anyone.

Sometimes it will show all of the above at the same property.

There are quite a few "certificate" or "junk" rates shown when you use NPR code. As discussed on the old thread those should NOT be used.

There was, however, easy way to become VIP Athletic rate eligible. Can anybody post the procedure again?

Just join one of the sports writers associations (Baseball, Football, Basketball, etc.) I think the cost is less than $50/year.

I really dont understand what a junk rate is - could you explain?

You can join the football writers association for $40/year. http://www.sportswriters.net/fwaa/about/join07.html

3-for-2 weekend offer in Germany. Expires June 18.

I tried it, and it works.

It's an Air Berlin offer, but I don't think you need to be a member of their FFP.

First, mistern, welcome to FT.

Second, if by Embassy you mean Embassy Suites, then you will need to look in the Hilton forum for information as it is a part of that chain and not Marriott.

Sometimes under NPR you'll see a $0 rate that says something like "Property use only - do not use" or similar text that makes it very clear that it isn't a real, bookable rate. On occasion, folks will get excited and post that they've found either a "mistake" rate or some sort of hidden viral promotion.

Aol?
 

Question about the AOL rate...it gives me a rate $50 cheaper than the standard rate. Has anyone used this code? I'm not clear on whether it's for AOL customers or employees. Thanks.

It is for employees of TimeWarner's AOL division

Hello,

I'm planning a weekend stay in Atlanta and I need to know if anyone has a good rate that can be used on hotels in Midtown Atlanta (particularly either at ATL Midtown Suites on 14th Street or at Residence Inn ATL Historic Midtown on West Peachtree Street).

Thanks.
