Page 17-THE NEWS-September, 1985 I iVl* Operations Manager Suzanne Braswell oversees book ing^ for 31 hotels in 9 cities for Reservations Incorporated. Hotel Room - Booking Service Appeals To Jewish Community A unique travel service that offers luxury hotel ac commodations at substan tially reduced prices is gain ing widespread acceptance in the Charlotte Jewish community, according to Bruce Hensley, one of the founders. Charlotte-based Reserva tions Incorporated was formed last year to help member hotels fill empty rooms by offering reduced rates to travelers who would not normally spend the night in Charlotte. “We want the day- trippers coming to Carowinds, Discovery Place, Southern Shows and other attractions to spend the night in Charlotte,” ex plained Hensley. “Charlotte has much to offer, and we are trying to help establish her as an affordable, fun destination.” The service is promoted through toll-free 800 telephone numbers printed on various attraction brochures. Recently, the company discovered the number of Charlotte day- trippers for weddings. Bar Mitzvahs and other celebra tions was quite high. “We offer up to 50% sav ings on a variety of accom modations in Charlotte and eight other U.S. cities,” con tinued Hensley. “This is a very appealing service to friends and relatives who might think attending such events is illaffordable.” “We were extremely pleased with the way Reser vations handled our accom modations,” said Betty Shelley, mother of a June bride. “They took a lot of responsibility off me and made housing our guests very simple and affordable.” Della Freedman, newly established Bat/Bar Mitz- vah consultant, added, “I think the concept is great. I hope to use the service fre quently in my new business.” “I found out about Reser vations through a contact at Discovery Place,” said Cynthia Melenson. “1 plan on using the service for my son’s Bar Mitzvah in October.” For additioneil informa tion about Reservations In corporated, the Ch£u-lotte phone number is 376-9174.
