@ WoinParis: Hard to argue with that -- except (brace yourself) they think I'm one, too. ;-)

@ newtome: That might be worth trying. For now, I'll see if they can figure it out. I would hate to loose my "genius" benefits. ;-) Thanks, though!

@ Neha17: Yes, thanks, but I guess I haven't been clear -- I <u>want</u> to be able to book through booking.com.

I'm sure you are...
LAst booking they gave me a free drink on top - they must feel competition here too.

@ WoinParis: Right, those free drinks keep me committed! ;-) Once when asked if I would like my free drink, I said yes, I would love some coffee. I was served coffee and a small glass of juice, and then charged for the coffee, as only the juice would count. I wasn't enough of a genius to have figured that one out in advance. :-(

The genius was the one who charged the coffe - splendid marketing !
I once had something similar and I asked the guy to charge the thing that was free. At least I had the great pleasure to see him quite confused.

@ WoinParis: You got it! ;-) But lesson learned, and sometimes a free welcome drink can be a nice thing, even if it is a very, very, very small thing.
