How do the hotels handle those extended-area calls to the "Prince William" area from the Va. suburbs (DC area)? Those calls have to stay at 1+703+7D because of prefix duplication with Md. (not DC?), and cannot reduce to 7D until after the dust settles from the change to NPA+7D local calls in DC area. (But the other way around, they are already reduced to 7D.) Another area to try w/r to more-than-7D local calls from hotel rooms would be Chester/Concordville/Chadds Ford/Kennett Square area in southeastern Pa. in area 215. I know of hotels there (including one just off I-95 in Chester), and those areas have local service to Delaware (formerly 7D, now 1+302+7D). (215 area also has 1+NPA+7D local calls into NJ; I don't yet know what the story is for those few cases of local service from 215 into 717.)
