Two guests, one 407, lots of smiles

At 11:42 pm last night, two separate parties arrived with confirmations for the same king in 407 after our PMS burped during a rate push… I kept them happy with warm cookies, a suite upgrade, and some manual reservation gymnastics in the PMS and channel manager — what’s your smoothest save when tech tries to double-book your evening?

I set a 60‑min ‘overbook cushion’ after any rate push and drop a dummy hold on the king in PMS so a ‘double-book’ can’t snag 407 again — midnight musical chairs avoided. If it still clashes, I pre-call our walk partner and print a ride-share code; do you lock upgrades with a do‑not‑move?
