So when we travel and stay over night in hotels. I know the hotels are paid for us but do we get to build out hotel rewards and miles? This would be a great benefit just wondering how that works.
Ray,
I’m not good about remembering to give the hotel my rewards number, but I’ve received credit for my stays at Marriot and Best Western.

Ray,
Some do but most don’t.

Ray,
No. I have never got a single point from staying at a hotel for work. Because the airlines are paying for the rooms directly, you do not get the points.

Ok thank you so it does not look like a benefit. thank you.
Ray,
Staying in some really nice hotels around the world FOR FREE is the benefit.

Do you get better hotel rates when you travel on your own time for being an airline employee?

Yes, many hotels offer “crew” discounts.

Often times we do get better rates, but not always.
