Expovision, The Hotel Reservation Office for NPE2021: The Plastics Show, has reached out to its hotel partners for the latest information on their cleaning and safety protocols during the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. Each of the 43 hotels in the official event hotel block have launched stringent practices that follow guidelines from the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the Florida Governor and the city of Orlando.

Face coverings that cover the nose, mouth and chin are required in all indoor public areas.

Hotel scammers, housing pirates, room block poachers…however you refer to them, they have been a major problem in the convention industry for years. These are companies that masquerade as being the official housing partner for an event and sell room blocks that don’t actually exist. Their victims may pay thousands of dollars, only to arrive at the hotel and be told they don’t have a reservation.

Back in 2008, the American Society of Association Executives won a federal lawsuit against the hotel scammer Complete event Planning, Inc. Despite this monumental win, third-party hotel scammers continue to sprout up bringing financial pains. According to the American Hotel & Lodging Association, there are 55 million bad hotel bookings annually; that’s nearly $4 billion dollars in poachers’ pockets!
