    New Alpharooms site

    Hey All,
    On the top left of the new page next to where it says Alpharooms.com there is a Menu option. Under that Menu there is an option "Visit old site" That is where you are able to book with the USA $ option.
    Good Luck,
    Paul

    Cheap Tickets: 1800.00-Flight + room

    Alpharooms: $1430 just for the room.

    FLight only from Dallas for 2: $700= $2130>> Flight + Alpharooms

    $330 difference. Quite a lot, although in some parts of the world some people may be able to save money through Alpharooms. Not in Texas.

    Yikes! I looked I think within the last week and the price was about $210 per night for standard room, and now it's more than $330. I'm approximating because I'm too lazy to open xe.com and figure out the Pounds. Not good Alpharooms, not good.

    Expedia lets you book 2 destinations now and you get a good discount on combo

    when you get to the second part you just click the ''i will arrange my own transportation'' for the middle part of the trip.
    Click and change hotels and flights until you have the right combo

    lol,, I just booked with sell off ,,, my comment was in response to doing a multi /hotel booking

    I was going to do a split TTR/GOV in April and was looking at expedia with the two destination offer,, but Sell off had the Spice room at a great deal so were off to the GOV.
    We will still do some Visits and Cruise for sure,@ TTR

    Have A great Christmas, hope to see you in the new year :lotsofmichaelfs:

    Huge THANX Halifax Dan!!! Just booked on selloffvacations.com for the same price Alpharooms offered BEFORE the site redesign. You just saved us $720. If we see you, drinks are on us. :)

    Can anybody explain to me how this website (and previoulsy Alpharooms) can be so much cheaper than the Expedias of the world? I thought I was pretty knowledgeable about web bookings, but just got schooled today.
