I believe it was more the economic downturn in the US that fueled it. It just happens that SARS was at around at about the same time. The economic issues lasted longer and were more widespread than SARS was in North America.The reason some of us think this is because the general public FD usually follows the BB and the BB ended Sept 9th with nothing until December. Also this promo was initially intended to fill the rooms because SARS was stopping travel, now that the rooms are filling without any help of a discount they don't need to offer it. Over the last couple of years the dates and room availability have been getting less and less.
