Priceline and Canadians question

[CJK]

We are going to Disney next week with another couple. Do you know if it's possible to book 2 rooms in the same hotel through priceline? What have been your experiences booking an Orlando hotel/motel through priceline? I've never had one of my bids accepted before so I'm curious how it has worked out for other Canadians. I'd like to be as close to Disney as possible at a good price. Any info/help would be greatly appreciated!!!

Hi
There is a great forum for priceline advice.....I am not sure if it addresses the Canadian issues or not...but it seems to me a while back someone said that you could put in a '0' or other number where it asks for the zip code ??? I am not sure as I haven't used it yet. Hope this helps and have a great trip!!!!!

Thanks for the post! I actually have good news to report. I went to that board you mentioned and I read a lot of information. I put in a couple bids and got accepted! I got a 2.5* hotel very close to Disney for $25 a night. We're thrilled! I recommend priceline to anyone who is on a budget!

We got the Ramada Plaza and Gateway Inn. I've heard mixed reviews so I'm keeping my fingers crossed. We generally spend little time at the hotel anyway, but I just want it to be clean and welcoming. Only 3 days to go!

Can you get car rental deals too?

Hi There

I have never rented a car through priceline but according to their FAQ it can be done. Take a look at the website for bidding with priceline and expedia, and hopefully your questions will be answered.

there is a section there in the FAQ under car rentals/non US residents you can also scholl down to see what people are actually paying for the rental....cheers
