crossedfingers Posted April 10, 2008 Report Posted April 10, 2008 I started bidding on JFK area 3* at $76 = rejected added Bayside (free zone) at $88 = rejectedadded Elmherst (free zone) and moved bid down to $76 = rejectedI realize it's not smart to offer less, but it was a same day reservation so i thought what the heck.Bad strategy. Went to book the "backup" that i had found on Hotwire (3* @$119) and it was no longer available. So after studying this message board, I went back to PricelineJFK 3* $99 = ACCEPTEDDoubletree Hotel JFK Airport135-30 140th StreetJamaica, New York 11436718-322-2300Trip insurance purchased for $5, Total Charges $129.14Doubletree and Expedia websites show best rate of $229.00 for tonight.I USED YOUR LINKS TO GET TO BOTH PRICELINE AND HOTWIREThank you for hosting this great service and all the great advice that you give!
