Luckily, I'm okay with moving to another hotel closer to the airport if needed. But, the "add night" feature is good until 11 AM of my day of arrival. Plenty of time still.Thanks Better Bidding for a great website - the links do work!

carpediem888 Posted February 15, 2012 Author Report Posted February 15, 2012 Thank you for the clarification, thereuare! I didn't know about the "one use" aspect of the added night feature.Since I was okay with moving closer to the airport for my final night in town, I used a free night certificate from my hotel loyalty program. Before booking this trip, I was wondering how I would use a 1-night certificate before expiration.
thereuare Posted February 15, 2012 Report Posted February 15, 2012 Thanks for the follow-up regarding what you decided for the additional nite... sounds like everything worked out well in the end!Have a great trip.
