Tried to capitalize on a glitch on Expedia today....so close!

Dont know if they would have honored it but damn I was close in booking July 17-25 for 2 people round trip to TTR for only $891 !!! It would have been the glitch of a lifetime

 

lol too bad. I'm pretty sure they would of had to honor that, cant change the price after they sell it. Doesn't matter if it was below market value, the consumer is not responsible for your pricing.

 

Unfortunately they don’t have to honor it.

 

Our news station did a report on this--it's a pretty frequent bait-and-switch move the travel companies are doing right now.

I had Orbitz, Expedia, Priceline, Southwest, Kayak, Travelocity and Tripadvisor running simultaneously last month, and every single one of them did this to me. I'd select a flight, and I'd get a pop-up that the price had "magically" gone up at least $100, no matter what flight I selected or what site I selected through. Pretty shitty, really.

 

Lame. I suppose that is intended to make you feel like you better hurry up and book before the price jumps up again.

 

They dont have to honor it. I've had the price go up from the time I filled out the info, til the time I went to the checkout page.

 

This is interesting. We live in Northern Canada, thousands of Kilometers (2348kms to be exact, that's 1456 in Freedom Units) North of Vegas and the price we are paying is several hundred dollars cheaper and in CAD dollars to boot!

Always thought Americans living in the South were able to vacation in Mexico for way cheaper than we Canucks, but that doesn't seem to be the case...

 

A bunch of us got in April on a Westjet glitch , have our confirmation #,s and paid in full . About 50% off the room at the time , we figured it was a pp,, per room glitch in the software

 

From Texas, our airfare usually runs anywhere from $200-350 pp, for economy round trip. Of course we are much closer to Cancun. 3 years ago, we hit a deal on United and it was only $140 pp, round trip.

I get a little pissed when I see prices as high as 4-500$ pp from Houston or Dallas....until I see what people who live farther away are paying.

 

We booked another stay at TTR. Flights from LAX were $357 round trip.
