I use terms like LAX, or JFK as those codes are very well known. Start using terms like DCA or ORD or PVG and you're likely to get blank stares from the uninitiated.

I am all for the move away from all the plastic shampoo bottles, but why can’t they still supply us with a small bar of soap instead of that liquid soap which I hate. Very soon one sign I am a frequent traveller will be the return of a travel soap box to my toilet bag.

A good liquid soap is superior imo, doesn't dry the skin (has inbuilt moisturiser), great for shaving pits and legs, faster to lather, smells nicer. Plus less wastage.

I always bring my own, don't use the detergent some hotels offer.

More economical for them to have small bottles quasi stuck to wall dispenser.
And pour from their big bottles in their cleaning trolleys.
Cleaning staff then just pour refill into small non removable bottles.
Some of the criss cross dispensers will let the small bottles be removed if you know how.
Mass product refill saves time, ergo money kpi for cleaning staff.
Also less removal means less "wastage" or disappearances.

The drive was to achieve 'green targets', but it seems to make economic sense from the business perspective, with less handling leading to reduced costs.

These two aspects often coexist which is great!

A good soap bar, too. The variety on both is huge so it may take time to find the right product for you.

Exactly... a Bar of Dr Squatch or Irish Spring gets packed regardless if it is a weekend away, or a week away.

Some liquid soaps are ok, some are not even worthy of being used to do the dishes...
