eileenl Posted October 12, 2012 Report Share Posted October 12, 2012 I am checking out the Express Deal tab on priceline for the days I would like to stay in Austin. I would like a 4* in downtown, but none is shown in the express deal as available for this area (in any star level).Is it fruitless to do priceline bidding in this area then? Link to comment
WillTravel Posted October 12, 2012 Report Share Posted October 12, 2012 What dates are you looking for? Does HOTWIRE offer any 4* hotels for that date?As you likely know, Austin has periods of extreme hotel demand around certain festivals and events (e.g., SxSW, Formula 1, etc.), so unless you're very lucky during those times, bidding probably is fruitless.

eileenl Posted October 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2012 thanks for the response. However, I am more curious to know if Express Deals inventory is the same as PRICELINE's Bidding Inventory :P 10/19 - 10/21... Link to comment
WillTravel Posted October 12, 2012 Report Share Posted October 12, 2012 There's no reason to think it's the same, but without access to PRICELINE's databases, hard to know ;). Link to comment
