I’ve flown through some of our more recent meltdowns and always found a room and expensed it. Never has every hotel been sold out in the city. You may need to take a longer Uber but you can usually find something. When we are melting down the CPs are all usually available to call or text. I shot a text to one and was told the expense would be approved. Took less than 10 minutes and was in an Uber to the Renaissance in FLL with the FO and got paid back less than a week later. Got to keep the points too.
