gr8aunt Posted July 31, 2009 Report Posted July 31, 2009 My niece has an overnight stay for her connecting flight and plans to just hang out in the airport. I'm not all that comfortable with that and would like to get an airport hotel for her via Priceline but she's under 21. Any suggestions?
Colfax Posted August 1, 2009 Report Posted August 1, 2009 How old is your niece? If she'll be 21 in a month she can probably get away with it (although Priceline rules do say "over 21"). If she's 16 maybe not.

coharaca Posted August 2, 2009 Report Posted August 2, 2009 She's 20. Do you think the hotel would actually turn her away?I've come across people on TripAdvisor who stated this very thing. Comfort Inn was the chain, I believe.
AaronJB Posted August 2, 2009 Report Posted August 2, 2009 If you can pick out a particular hotel that's 18+, then there are coupon codes that work for the regular rate services (Orbitz, Expedia)
Colfax Posted August 3, 2009 Report Posted August 3, 2009 My personal feeling is that if your niece is almost 21 and doesn't look noticeably younger then the hotel is unlikely to refuse her, even if their policy is 21+. When the desk agents look at the drivers license they're looking for an ID match to the name on the reservation and most agents don't even look at the birthday.Still, under 21 is a violation of Priceline rules and there's always a chance she'll be refused, even if it's a very small chance.
