lew Posted March 5, 2011 Report Share Posted March 5, 2011 Too early for me to make a non-cancellation reservation.1) I'm going to book a "backup" reservation at either Caesars or MGM. Do you have an affiliate relationship (link?) for either?2) Hotwire (used your link to check) is showing $94 for a 5* N strip. resort fee about $20, casino, fitness, pool, restaurant, business center, high speed internet, golf, tennis, spaAny idea how much lower PL might be and how many weeks (days) before my stay might produce the best rates?I have no interest in using PL for a 4* property. PL fees and resort fees will offset enough of the savings. Not willing to accept an "opaque" booking that can't be changed or canceled for the amount of savings.For the 5* N strip property I know my resort fee will be $17-$20. Link to comment

I'd start at $70 and work up by $5's. June of last year saw 5* PRICELINE wins at around $80-90ish, and if there's higher travel this year, you may see that required range bump up a little bit but probably not by much.Thank you for using the site's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.
