They should only take the hotels away for those who didn’t cancel. I can’t stand this “punish the whole group for the mistakes of others” mind set.

Well it seems like it was the hotel who cancelled the contract for commuters not the Company. The Fairfield will still be used for overnights in LAX.

That makes more sense. Thanks for the clarification.

I think it's annoying that children can't abide by the rules and follow checklists. This job is easy, some of our pilots need to grow up and take it seriously.

We still get commuter hotels we are just moving from the FF to Four Points.

From the newsletter it sounds to me like people were at least trying to cancel their commuter hotels, but they were just calling scheduling rather than emailing. Seems to me like the schedulers weren't following through and actually canceling the reservations.

Nailed it! This is a classic example of the company blaming pilots for their mistakes. It’s stupid anyways, if the hotel gets paid for the reservation who cares if they get used or not!!??

because they lose money due to charging the company a discounted block rate for say $100 when they could've sold that room to some random guest for $150-200 etc...

Still silly, that’s the contract you agreed to so if you don’t like it then don’t agree to it in the first place. This is corporate greed + incompetence = pilot group loses..........again. I’m confident this was CS’s mistake. Not to say there were not some pilots who did it wrong, but so far this year I’ve E-MAILED to cancel 4 rooms that I had booked and all 4 times when I go to book later in the month I got told I was out of rooms and had to go dig up the e-mail where I canceled. I’m one person, no telling how many of those there have been.
