svanwag Posted September 24, 2010 Report Posted September 24, 2010 Well since I had luck with a New York trip, now we are making plans for a wedding in January. Jan 14-16, we will only stay in the French Quarter, and it must be a 4* hotel. What is the going rate for bids in this area? Where should I start? 50 and increment by 5s on the way up? Looks like there are 5 rebid zones?Thanks,Scott
AaronJB Posted September 25, 2010 Report Posted September 25, 2010 Rates do differ (sometimes significantly) from day-to-day and unfortunately rates do look a touch higher than average on these dates. What would be your desired max budget per night for this stay?Thank you for using the site's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.

thereuare Posted September 25, 2010 Report Posted September 25, 2010 Please start by reading your messagesAt current prices i don't think that $100 will likely be enough for a 4* property in the French Quarter, but to give it a try...At the 4* level in New Orleans you have FIVE re-bid zones. If you're not familiar with re-bidding please read Priceline Re-Bidding Explained and feel free to ask questions and/or confirm your re-bid zones with the board before proceeding.Select 4* French Quarter...Bid $75, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $80, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $85, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $90, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $95, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $100Any questions feel free to ask.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.Good luck and let us know how it goes. (if rejected you may have success for a 4* in the Downtown zone should that work for your needs) Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases
