Participants requiring hotel reservations should read the instructions below and on the detailed hotel page.

Participants must register in advance in order to obtain hotel accommodations through the Mathematics Meetings Service Bureau (MMSB). Special rates have been negotiated exclusively for this meeting at the following hotels: New Orleans Marriott, Sheraton New Orleans, JW Marriott New Orleans, and Astor Crowne Plaza New Orleans. Note that the AMS and MAA contract only with facilities who are working toward being in compliance with the public accommodations requirements of ADA.

Reservations must be made through the MMSB to receive these rates. Details on these hotels can be found at jointmathematicsmeetings.org/2125_hotelpage.html. These hotels can ONLY accept reservations directly after December 17, at which time rooms and rates will be based on availability. Higher rates will be applied to any rooms reserved directly with these hotels before December 17.

To reserve a room, please complete the housing section of the Advanced Registration/Housing (ARH) Form (via paper or the web) by November 19. All reservations must be guaranteed by either credit card or deposit by check in the total amount of first night stay. If you use the online form, a credit card number will be required for guarantee. If you use the paper form, a credit card number or check may be given for guarantee. For your security, credit card numbers will not be accepted by postal mail, e-mail, or fax. If you wish to guarantee your room by credit card and are submitting a paper form, the MMSB will call you at the number provided. Participants interested in suites should contact the MMSB at mmsb@ams.org or 1-800-321-4267 ext. 4137 or 4144 for further information. Sorry, reservations cannot be taken over the phone.

Participants who did not reserve a room during advance registration and would like to obtain a room at one of the hotels listed on the following pages should call the hotels directly after December 17. However, the MMSB can no longer guarantee availability of rooms or special convention rates after that date.

SPECIAL NOTICE! PLEASE NOTE THAT THE MATHEMATICS MEETINGS SERVICE BUREAU IS THE ONLY OFFICIAL GROUP AUTHORIZED TO PROCESS RESERVATIONS FOR THIS MEETING. THERE ARE NO TRAVEL COMPANIES AUTHORIZED TO PROCESS HOTEL RESERVATIONS FOR THIS MEETING, INCLUDING CANCELLIONS. IF YOU ARE CONTACTED BY ANY OTHER GROUP THAT INDICATES THAT IT HAS THIS AUTHORITY OR THAT OFFERS A SPECIAL RATE FOR THIS MEETING, PLEASE CONTACT US AT MMSB@AMS.ORG.

Importance of Staying in the Official Meetings Hotels: Your patronage of the official Meetings hotels enables the JMM to secure the meeting space at a greatly reduced cost which helps to keep the cost of the meeting and your registration fees down.

General Hotel Practices: Participants should be aware that most hotels are starting to charge a penalty fee to guests for departure changes made before or after guests have checked into their rooms. Participants should also inquire about this at check-in and make their final plans accordingly.

Participants should also be aware that it is general hotel practice in most cities to hold a nonguaranteed reservation until 6:00 p.m. only. When one guarantees a reservation by paying a deposit or submitting a credit card number as a guarantee in advance, however, the hotel will usually honor this reservation until checkout time the following day. If the individual holding the reservation has not checked in by that time, the room is then released for sale, and the hotel retains the deposit or applies a room charge to the credit card number submitted equivalent to a one-night stay.

If you hold a guaranteed reservation at a hotel but are informed upon arrival that there is no room for you, there are certain things you can request the hotel do. First, they should provide for a room at another hotel in town for that evening at no charge. (You already paid for the first night when you made your deposit.) Second, they should pay for taxi fares to the other hotel that evening and back to the hotel the following morning, assuming a room is available. Third, they should pay for one telephone call so that you can notify people of where you are staying. The hotel should make every effort to find a room for you in their hotel the following day and, if successful, pay your taxi fares to and from the second hotel so that you can pick up your baggage and bring it to the first hotel. Not all hotels in all cities follow this practice, so your request for these services may bring mixed results or none at all. If you did not receive satisfactory service in this regard, please inform the Housing Coordinator for the meeting.
