I took a look at the language and you are correct. Kind of vague. If they ever get this back would have to define "commuter." Home of record a certain number of miles from the airport or whatever.
Kind of amazing how low some people will stoop to chase nickels. A night's stay at a hilton for example might be worth about 2000 hilton points. At .005 cents point value that's about $10. So in theory someone is bothering to drive to hotel, stand in line, check in, etc. for maybe $10 worth of points and not stay. Actually kind of pathetic if true.
