Stay within our Block!
PLA and the cities that host our conference work very hard to determine the overall value our conference brings to the city, which impacts our ability to negotiate the best deals on such things as hotel room rates. Unfortunately, some attendees choose to reserve their hotel room outside of our block. Rooms sold outside of the PLA block cannot be tracked and therefore the value of the PLA National Conference diminishes. By making your reservation through our housing bureau to stay in the PLA block, you are helping us negotiate future low rates with our conference hotels.
Thank you for your assistance.
