thereuare Posted June 10, 2007 Report Share Posted June 10, 2007 Rack rates are low, and your bids are almost at typically accepted bids for these hotels (a little short on the 5*, at accepted bids for the 4*)... but the recently weak US dollar may be affecting this somewhat, and you may want to increase just a $1 or $2 to account for any change in currency.Still plenty of time.Thanks for trying your bids with the PRICELINE links at SavingsBarn.com :) Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases Link to comment
yellowdog Posted June 25, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2007 Started with using the savingsbarn.com link for Priceline.5* (Minato-ku - Shinagawa-ku) no hit at $1104* (Shinjuku-ku - Ikebukuro) no hit at $95Rack rates are still the same for reported places. $150/5* - $130/4*I will not go higher. My back-up is $85 inc tax. But I will keep trying.I know I'm the one that says that you can't rely on old wins. But it's strange for the 4*, might not have any PL inventory. $95 is the typically reported rate for this hotel. Henrik. Link to comment
thereuare Posted June 25, 2007 Report Share Posted June 25, 2007 ... and rates at the 4* property are not out of line with the "norm".Maybe the revenue manager is slow in loading/updating rates... hopefully something will open up soon.
