5.    MAKE YOUR HOTEL RESERVATION

·       You should make your room reservation ASAP.

o   The rooms for the Class will be held only for a limited time. 

o   You can cancel a reservation later the same as any standard reservation. 

o   But, if you wait to make a reservation, you may not be able to do so.

o   Therefore, you have everything to gain and nothing to lose by making your reservation NOW!

·       Make your reservation.

o   ONLINE – Preferred Method

https://www.hilton.com/en/attend-my-event/westpointclassof61reunion/ 

o   By Phone – Last Resort

§  Individual group members may make their reservations at 800-446-6677.

§  Use the group code USM (USMA CLASS OF 1961) when making the reservation.

§  Be patient – the agents I have dealt with for the reservations I have made have all had trouble.

§  Make sure they find the Group Name.

§  If they tell you rooms are not available, tell them to check again – the rooms are blocked out.

o   If you have any problems getting the type room you want or making your reservation, notify me.  61reunion@cfl.rr.com

·       Accessible Rooms

o   The hotel has only a few accessible rooms. 

§  29 Class members requested an accessible room. 

§  Therefore, these are a major concern item for us.

o   The hotel does have a number of rooms with walk-in showers and has agreed to assign these to Class members if requested.

o   So, if you can accept a room with walk-in shower, reserve either a 1 King Bed room or 2 Queen Beds room.

§  ONLINE – Preferred Approach

https://www.hilton.com/en/attend-my-event/westpointclassof61reunion/ 

·       After you select your room and fill in all personal info, scroll down and select “Special requests”

·       Request room with walk-in shower – screenshot below.

§  BY PHONE

Tell the agent you have a Special Request

A standard room with a walk-in Shower”

DO NOT let the agent put you in an accessible room.

§  Also, notify me that you need a walk-in shower. 

I will follow up with the hotel to ensure you get a room with a walk-in shower. 

o   If you require only an accessible room and one is not available, notify me and I will work the issue.
