Priceline Hotel: 2* NYC (Chelsea) GEM Hotel

[antrob]

I split my 11/24 - 11/28 Thanksgiving weekend bids with success. I had previously won a 2* in MSG-Convention area for the Best Western for 11/24 - 11/26 for 135.

I just won the 2* GEM Hotel in Chelsea for 160. I used the strategy that the Board recommended for my first split bid with a tweaks for higher prices:

Here was the previous advice (I changed it to reflect the amounts I used to win this second half of my bid.:

With no re-bid zones i'd try as follows:

Select 2* MTW...

Bid $140, if rejected close browser and use this link to re-access PRICELINE

Select 2* HK and Chelsea...

Bid $145, if rejected close browser and use this link to re-access PRICELINE

Select MTW and HK...

Bid $150, if rejected close browser and use this link to re-access PRICELINE

Select MTW and Chelsea...

Bid $160 and this is the bid I won: 2* GEM Hotel in Chelsea.

My first split was 135 and this split was 160, so I think prices definitely rise after the Thanksgiving holiday.
