tinnub Posted August 4, 2005 Report Share Posted August 4, 2005 A friend booked trip to NYC for 11/04-11/06. Found out after the trip was booked that it is the New York city Marathon weekend. Hotels seem to be very tight. Tried all kinds of rebids for all kinds of Manhatten zones and all were rejected up to $225. Will try again in a few days. Link to comment
blindman Posted August 4, 2005 Report Share Posted August 4, 2005 I'd leave it at least a week or you may get despondant.Have you thought of NJ??Have you booked a cancellable backup? Link to comment
thereuare Posted August 4, 2005 Report Share Posted August 4, 2005 This is one of the busiest weekend in NYC... your friend had best book a cancellable back-up in the meantime as most hotels will eventually sell-out.Please direct him/her to our SUPPORT PAGE and use our links for hotel-direct reservations. As well, use our link to EasyClickTravel, i already took a look and most of the usual places are not available, but some of their rooms are pretty cheap (if that is the primary concern vs. quality) and they're cancellable up until 72 hours before check-in date.QUIKBOOK also has a few budget hotels in the $215-$235 range... their "pay when you stay" rates are cancellable without penalty, their "pre-pay" rates have a $10 cancellation fee (double check on both counts!) Again, please have your friend use our QuickBook link if s/he chooses to book that way. Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases Link to comment
tinnub Posted August 4, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2005 Already showed him this website, and suggested the links. I told him it was easy because all the links he needs are on one page. Link to comment
