So here is my methodology. I will first state that this is only done during my stateside punting unless I'm on a business financed trip overseas. If I'm out on a punting adventure, then I don't really bother with any of the cloak and dagger stuff with the exception of fake name.
The hotel issue isn't too difficult. I just have them list my company name on the register. When you make a reservation, have it under your company name with you as a guest. I use my fake company I spoke about earlier. When I check in, I tell the front desk that they should have a reservation for my alias. They won't, then I tell them to check under my company name. Surprise, they find that name, but the first name on the guest name is different than my real name. I tell them that the company travel person always uses my given name and not what I go by, I tell them it is a nick name. I even ask them to change it on the register, because if my spouse calls she will not ask for my given name, but my nickname. They are happy to oblige.
Now I am checked in under my alias first name, and for me my very common last name.
As far as the credit card situation goes, there is one way to get it done. If you have a card in your name, it is pretty easy to request an additional card in another name. You don't have to supply any identifying information if you are the primary on the card. No SS# or DOB, just the name and an address. You can then keep that card for your hotel check ins, or meals when out with your Civvie or WG. I've had one for years and really now I don't even carry it. I call it my Shawshank card. It belongs to a man that never existed. If you are a fan of the movie, you will get the reference.
I've never had any real issues at my hotels with Civvies or WGs. But I'm always careful. One thing I know, is that most of the Civvies from places like WYP are trying to play with more game than the average punter. I've never had one give me her real name at the start. So in my mind, they don't want to be outed any more than you do.
As far as a WG goes, if she does that, she should know she is going to catch massive shit from everyone for going that direction.
Lastly, I also never lie to a WG or Civvie about my relationship status. It is a pain and it can cost you some girls, but almost all of the Civvies I've been with respected the fact that I didn't try and BS them about my status. They understand discreet. But if you find one that doesn't, then you need to run away quickly.
