If you want to explore disparities, you need to do it with
equivalent conditions.
I see your point, but I disagree. A bed to sleep in tonight is a
bed to sleep in tonight, no matter whether I booked it today or a
year ago.
You did not make your reservation "as of now". You made it some
time ago. Conditions change and hotels vary their room rates
accordingly.
Likewise, I can change my plans according to how they change their
rates (cancel my reservation, or even check out and then check in
under a different rate). More simply, I can just walk up to the
hotel desk and ask them to give me the same rate they're giving walk-
up guests.
As explained in the last message, I understand that the calculus is
different for the secretariat, which must book the hotel months out.
We individually have the chance to book rooms much, much later.
Tough spot for the secretariat. :-)
Please, please do not blame the Secretariat.
The IAOC makes all decisions about hotel contracts. If there
is any blame, it is ours, not theirs.
