thereuare Posted August 26, 2005 Report Posted August 26, 2005 At the 4* level in this zone you have one re-bid zone, if you're not familiar with re-bidding please read PRICELINE RE-BIDDING and feel free to ask questions and/or confirm your re-bid zones with the board.Rates are low for your dates and i would bid as follows:Select 4* Heathrow...Bid $50, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $55.If rejected wait 72 hours and bid as follows:Select 4* Heathrow...Bid $55, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $60.Any questions feel free to ask.Good Luck and let us know how it goes.
