Priceline Hotel: Trying to book package (need help)

[Charles]

I am trying to book some tickets to MN from san francisco between may 31 ( arrive date +/- a day) - june 3/4 (leave date), but I wasn't sure if there is a way to get the eagen homestead hotel? I am also trying to book the sun country flight since it's the shortest... is that possible? Possible to make a bid on a package? I couldn't find that option... help?

There is no bidding on the packages either thru Priceline or Hotwire... the prices shown are the prices that you pay, but they also show the name of the hotel so you'll know whether or not you're booking the Eagen Homestead.

You're not able to choose your airline or flight, and i don't believe Priceline or Hotwire deals with Sun Country(?) Airlines.

Booking a package thru either service will likely cost you more than booking the airfare on your own and then an 'opaque hotel' thru Priceline or Hotwire... but then again you won't be able to choose the specific property you want (not sure how important that is to you).

I tried looking for Eagen Homestead on priceline, but unable to find it? Is it listed on something else difference from vacational package? Someone help.

Are you looking in the 'retail' product or the 'name your own price' (opaque) product?

[Charles]

Name your own prices.

I'm not sure where you're at....

Are you still looking for a package? If so, there is no 'no name your own price' for packages.

Are you trying to bid for a hotel only? If so, you can't bid on a specific property, you can only select a minimum star rating within a given pre-defined boundary.

If you haven't already you may want to give How Does Priceline Work a read.
