pistol23 Posted January 3, 2010 Report Posted January 3, 2010 My fiance and I are taking our honeymoon to Seattle July 19-24, and we are trying to plan ahead. Does Priceline generally accept bids this far out? Thanks! I have been using the PRICELINE links on the website.
thereuare Posted January 3, 2010 Report Posted January 3, 2010 Yes, PRICELINE accepts bids this far out.Summer has traditionally been a more expensive time in Seattle (great weather and lots of cruise ship passengers) although this past year business was somewhat slow and we saw prices quite a bit less than usual.How high have you bid already?Thanks for using our PRICELINE links for your bidding.

pistol23 Posted January 3, 2010 Author Report Posted January 3, 2010 We have done all of the rebids up to $85. I know this is low, but we were just trying to see what they would accept. Do prices generally drop as the dates get lower?
thereuare Posted January 3, 2010 Report Posted January 3, 2010 Do prices generally drop as the dates get lower?Not necessarily... it's all based upon supply/demand, hotel occupany levels, how many reservations the hotel has on the books for the specified dates vs. how many they expect they should have at this point in time, how much time is left to sell the rooms, etc.For more on this subject see the related link in our PRICELINE FAQ.
