Bonk Posted October 28, 2004 Author Report Posted October 28, 2004 Thanks, dave, for the links. I booked this through Priceline US? I don't know how to book through Priceline SG or HK.
dave Posted October 28, 2004 Report Posted October 28, 2004 PL SG & HK offer air/hotel bookings in a similar manner to PL except that bids are in local currencies - SG$ and HK$. Destinations offered and rates accepted may differ too.If you need any tips on your stay in SG, feel free to PM me.
Chris26WI Posted October 28, 2004 Report Posted October 28, 2004 and PL HK/SG allow rebids by only increasing your bid by 50HK$ (5SG$) after rejection - without having to use free re-bids or adding zones/changing dates for that.
dave Posted October 28, 2004 Report Posted October 28, 2004 Chris, wondering if the 5SG$ rebid amount for PL SG is correct as 50HK$ is equivalent to about 11SG$? Thanks :)
Chris26WI Posted October 28, 2004 Report Posted October 28, 2004 Hmm.. Dave... not 100 % sure, as I usually do bid on PL HK... not PL SG... however I think to remember that the rebid increase level is a bit lower in PL SG than in PK HK... but I wouldn't swear.. I think to remember that it's really only 5 SG$ on PL SG, but not sure!
Chris26WI Posted October 28, 2004 Report Posted October 28, 2004 ...actually, I can confirm now that the minimum "next-bid-step" in Priceline Singapore is indeed 5SG$!
dave Posted October 29, 2004 Report Posted October 29, 2004 Awesome, hope to be trying PL SG soon! Thanks for the information Chris :)
