They buy tickets in bulk and offer some pretty good savings. You will only use the first part of each fare and discard the second portion. Even though you booked two trips, you MAY save money overall because of the Saturday night stays. I include it here, but I do not support it. You don't need to have a MBNA credit card to obtain this information.
Most programs offer reduced hotel rates through participating hotels.
Some even pay for your stay for one night. If you cannot afford the hotel rate offered, consider staying with an MCP or Hahnemann graduate at the institution or with a friend in the area. If you have an AAA motor card, mention this when booking hotel rates and car rentals. Most hotels and car rental agencies offer discounts to AAA members. Also, some parking garages offer reduced rates as well.
