Most domiciles post what hotels have what rate in their crew room. If not, ask around to commuters, usually there are one or two hotels that everyone uses. SkyWest has a directory online of all the crew hotels we use and what rates they offer employees for personal stays. As for other cities, just start calling the hotels near the airports. Some hotels give different rates to different airlines, but if you show up in uniform, they usually never ask what specific airline you work for.

Try priceline.com. I just started using it and it truly does give you HUGE discounts on hotel rooms (>50%). The only thing about it though is that if they don't accept your offer, you have to wait 24 hours to offer again for the same trip. If you change the star level of the hotel you want you can offer again. Another thing is that if they accept your offer, you are charged and cannot cancel/get a refund.

thanks guys for the replies, I will try again. I tried calling the same hotel we stay at and the rates I get is only like 20$ off the orig. which is way high compare to the usual 35-55 crew rates, I guess it varies sometimes.
