B&B’s for Vets 2015
PAII’s support for the B&Bs for Vets promotion continues. This
year, we’ve joined with AIHP (Association of Independent Hospitality
Professionals), BBCanada.com, BnBFinder.com’s Salute Our
Military Offers, and BedandBreakfast.com in a united effort to
show appreciation to active or retired military at our B&B Inns.
All innkeepers are invited to participate in the 2015 B&Bs for Vets
program by offering a minimum of one room for one night and
totally free. Innkeepers will give their free rooms away on Tuesday
November 10, 2015 or Wednesday the 11th (Veteran’s
Day). Innkeepers may offer additional free nights – this will be
noted in their descriptions.
All veterans and active military interested in participating in B&Bs
for Vets must show proof of military service in order to qualify for
free rooms. Additionally, all cancellation policies
will be in effect at participating properties. Thus,
vets and active military may be asked for a credit
card to hold the reservation, and in the event of a
no-show, the inn/B&B’s cancellation policy will
apply.
