john2003 Posted July 31, 2008 Report Posted July 31, 2008 I have bid on successive days $130 and $140 for November 20 -22 in Sydney with no success. I don't see a way to get around the 24 hour wait. While the list of hotels on thjis site does not have any 2* hotels in this area and have been unable to prove there aren'tany in Priceline. I may be doing something wrong.
thereuare Posted August 1, 2008 Report Posted August 1, 2008 With your stay not until November, why not just wait out the 24 hours... why take any unnecessary risk of adding 'live' zones?Please use these PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links to begin your travel purchases.
