Not really. I joined and my reservation still was canceled. The new unpublished term is that to use the code, a person must have attended the convention.

Not that anyone wants to book on Travelocity right now, but their website is down for maintenance.

10% off Good Buy hotel or a package, 2-night min: COMEBACK10 [book by 8/5 11.59pm CT]

Nothing in the T&Cs about needing to have attended a conference in Dallas.

This is very ironic that they have a 10% off code now on their maintenance frontpage that we cannot use it now...

I'll come back!

After this I'll never use them again. And I very rarely say that about any company.

Dear CALITALIAN,

We wanted to set the record straight about the NFB2012 promo code. On July 4, 2012 Steve Dumaine, our senior vice president of global strategy and product innovation, addressed the attendees of the National Federation of the Blinds National Convention. As a token of our goodwill, Mr. Dumaine offered those attending the conference a promo code. While he made it clear in his speech that only those NFB members attending the conference were eligible to use the promo code, it was shared beyond the NFB conference attendees by others without mentioning this important restriction and many ineligible people used the code. Those reservations have been cancelled.

Unfortunately, there has been some confusion among those of you whose bookings were cancelled regarding refunds and cancellation fees. We apologize for this. To be clear, if your booking has been cancelled, you will be fully refunded and not charged any cancel fees. If you attended the NFB conference and your reservation was cancelled, please call us at 1-866-211-1731 and we will confirm your attendance with our colleagues at the NFB and, if necessary, reschedule your booking.

Sincerely,
Travelocity Customer Care Team

Holy crap are they full of ..... What a joke. He made it clear in his speech? Oh, that's ok then. No need to put it in the actual terms. And when Travelocit y themselves tweeted it to the public, well that was just a little joke I guess.

What total bs from these guys.

No doubt all of this was laid out in the Terms and Conditions of the coupon.

When Travelocity was giving out customized luggage tags 3-4 years ago, I ordered mine with the phrase "The Gnome Sucks". I'll have to dig them out again.
