I didn't realize that all airlines didn't publish a list. We have a "crew hotel" list that shows the prices we contract with, whether it allows for leisure bookings and any blackout dates for those bookings, and whether it is okay to book for dependents travelling without the employee. An extremely useful tool that they publish monthly to keep up with any changes.
I knew Costco offered some discounts but I hadn't realized that Sam's Club offered the same. I'll look into that. I do find that calling the hotel directly usually nets a good price BUT sometimes trying there and, if they don't have an industry rate, calling the 800 number can net you a better rate.
Always check online rates as well because sometimes they are better than the industry rate. Those kinds of deals usually require prepayment, however, and are often nonrefundable so be careful!
Thanks for the tips!
