    Absolutely nothing to complain about on this one and as a few others have said it is not a scam!

    This is normal when flying on night flights to holiday destinations, it has been happening like this for years and will continue.

    Your accommodation is reserved from the previous afternoon as you arrived in the early hours of the morning that is classed as your first night. For a small fee most hotels and apartments will let you keep your room on until later in the day.

    Agree with all the points about the room being available from the day before but by letting people stay in the room, for a fee, they are effectively selling the room twice, scam it may not be but a nice little earner. A bit like when you have to return the hire car "empty", no-one takes it back bone dry, so that last few litres gets sold over and over, at todays prices, genius!!
