    The most common method of making a guaranteed reservation is by:

    • Credit or debit card

    • Prepayment.

    • Travel agent.

    Correct Answer
    A. Credit or debit card
    Explanation
    The most common method of making a guaranteed reservation is by using a credit or debit card. This is because when you provide your card details, the hotel or service provider can secure your reservation by charging a certain amount as a guarantee. This ensures that they have a form of payment in case of any cancellation or no-show. It also provides a level of security for both the customer and the business, as the card details can be used to hold the reservation and prevent any potential fraud.

    Explanation
    A resort hotel is most likely to require payment in full before a guest's day of arrival because these types of hotels often offer a variety of amenities and services, such as pools, spas, and recreational activities. These additional services may require upfront payment to secure reservations and ensure availability. Additionally, resort hotels often attract tourists and vacationers who plan their trips in advance, making it necessary for the hotel to collect full payment beforehand to guarantee the reservation.

This is beneficial for companies or institutions that frequently need to book hotel accommodations for their employees or members. By having a corporate account, they can streamline the booking and payment process, making it more convenient and efficient.
