The Pinned hotel list has these zones for Honolulu: Honolulu (Airport) Honolulu (Waikiki East) Honolulu (Waikiki North) Honolulu (Waikiki South) But the current Priceline Map has these zones: (Ihilani) (Airport) (Executive Center) (Waikiki North) (Waikiki South) East either got folded into another zone (South?) or they just redrew the lines. To other readers out there: The link to Travle Links to Help Support BetterBidding are in the upper right of the browser window. It took me awhile to realize it was there. Maybe a color change or icon is needed? :)
I also got this deal after trying $55, denied so I added airport and upped to $58. This was for two rooms and I was worried what would have happened if there was just one. It's my first time actually trying for a particular place using the rebid strategy especially when the place isn't just for me. The simplest explaination why this works is because there don't appear to be any hotels in the airport area above 2 * so you get a free shot without having to wait 72 hrs. The Priceline Hotels list needs to be updated since the regions listed don't corespond to the current Priceline maps. I love the car tool since that is the next task. I usually just get the compact or economy car and they usually try to sell me the upgrade at the counter. I've been through that deal several times before so I just say no and I usually get a free upgrade because it's late and the reserved cars are not there or if it's early they are usually reserving them for confirmed regular rentals. They may also be saving them for regular walk up customers that will pay much more for the smallest cars. I would suggest this for 2-3 travelers but since we are a party of 4 I am thinking of going for mid-size and hope for an upgrade. Does this sound like a good strategy for this time period?
