    6. Distribution by Booking Channel

    7. Booking Channel Percentages Government Best Practice Corporate Model

    8. Why?

    9. What We Have Heard: From Travelers: Travel Counselors are not offering hotels Traveler perception: Travelers are not getting the lowest rate when booking through a TMC/CTO Counselors know little about the destinations and are not able to provide the information they need Travelers do not know where they have to stay at the time they make their air/car reservation Concerned additional fees incurred when calling back to book hotel

    10. What We Have Heard: From You: Government agencies negotiate their own “hotel deals,” and travelers must go through a local contact to book Travel counselors do not have the tools to effectively and efficiently directionally sell hotels Travelers want to book hotels on their own to secure hotel frequent guest points

    11. How can FedRooms help?

    12. FedRooms Rate Guarantees Accepted properties: Rates at or below per diem Cancellation policy of 4pm day of arrival for U.S. hotels; 24 hours (or less) for hotels outside the U.S. No early departure fees All U.S. and U.S. territory hotels FEMA certified Compliant with American’s with Disabilities Act (US hotels)

    13. FedRooms Rate Guarantees Continued Accept Government charge cards No Minimum Stay requirements No deposit required No additional booking fees Walk policy If hotel is unable to honor reservation, the hotel will, at its expense, secure a comparable room at a comparable, FEMA-approved property and will provide transportation and a phone call

    14. Travelers Value Proposition Easy Choice Near Business Locations Meets Quality Standards Reward Point Accrual Standard amenities offered by property applied to FedRooms bookings Breakfast, Internet, etc. Discounts available for: personal/leisure/family and GOV contractors
