Thanks for the tip Graeme. I'm going to check into that first thing in the AM.
I deal with VISA. On the only occasion I ever had to question a charge, their
customer rep was unable to identify the source of the charge and thusly
deleted it on the spot. I don't know much about it, but I think they have some
sort of customer satisfaction policy. Certainly, Travelocity seems very
unreasonable in this instance.
