thereuare Posted October 15, 2010 Report Posted October 15, 2010 if book 2 nights, not sure if can use the extend a 3rd night, never use this function be4, any suggests? :)If offered you can use the extend a nite feature, but this will NOT turn your 2 nite bid into a 3nite bid and allow you to use the bonus money.btw:when PL shows :Based on recent data, your price has only a small chance of being accepted. seems it's really no chance?The no chance/low chance warning message is meaningless, don't allow it to effect your bidding.PLEASE NOTE: you can still use our PRICELINE link along with your bonus money as follows:1) click our link to PRICELINE and let the page fully load2) at the top of the page go to MY PROFILE >> MY REWARDS3) use the bonus money link found in the MY REWARDS section of your profile (and not the link in any emails sent to you)Please use the PRICELINE links on the board for your bidding and the HOTWIRE links for your searches.Thanks.

zclord Posted October 16, 2010 Author Report Posted October 16, 2010 The no chance/low chance warning message is meaningless, don't allow it to effect your bidding.Thanks.if my past experience, if this warning message shows, bids will be failed... :)
zclord Posted October 16, 2010 Author Report Posted October 16, 2010 Just bid 3* 50+10 failed again. :)find 11/5 is an expensive date, check hotewire 11/3-5 3* is $63 but 11/3-6 is $76 and 3 star - Top Secret Hotel in Charlottesville 11/3-5 3* is $59 but 11/3-6 is $74, consider amex $20 off, then the first 2 nights is $49 but I feel tough to guess what the hotel is. 3* with 4 smile faces, can not get a match one from the hotel list, at first i tot is courtyard, but the detailed traveller rating is different, could u help to guess it? and I feel dangerous to book the first 2 nights, seems difficult to extend 3rd night at the same rate by PL...any advices? tks so much. this is the last hotel I need for my holiday. :obtw I feel Top Secret Hotel usually don't have good hotels....like my toronto hotel, the reivews r not good :)another thing can not understand, I see Doubletree Hotel Charlottesville rated $94 for 11/3-5, and if change dates to 11/3-6 then rate become $132, and if only check 11/5-6, the rate is $151, then we can get $94X2+$151=339/3=113 per night, still cheaper than book 11/3-6... so strange....
zclord Posted October 16, 2010 Author Report Posted October 16, 2010 bid 2.5* $45 11/3-6 failed. try to bid first 2 nights $45 for 3* 11/3-5 failed again and $40 for 2.5* failed. thinking to take Top Secret Hotel for the first 2 nights, but the 3rd nights seems difficult to obtain.............
AaronJB Posted October 17, 2010 Report Posted October 17, 2010 As you noted, 11/3-5 are definitely better than 5th-6th. What would be your desired max budget per night, and would it be an option to possibly split your stay into two separate bids? You may get two separate hotels in that case.Please use the site's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.
