Priceline Express Deals

Maybe someone can poke around the hidden deals but here is the information provided on a regular listing for Wyndham Grand Orlando Resort Bonnet Creek.

In this case the parking fee is declared but the resort fee is identified but no dollar amount is given.

I include parking fees in my resort matcher tool, but try to make it clear you can't count on them at all - with Swan and Dolphin in particular they'll flip flop between $50, $47 or leave them off all together. Sometimes they even post a random number!

Plus they might do something like show the $50 on the hidden deal, but the non-hidden has the $47. Just a mess.
Looks like the Wyndham Grand Orlando is acting like the Wyndham BC with no resort fees listed. (I don't click on WGO much because no real reason to. )

What has been recent experiences with adding additional kids to express deals? I attempted last year but was unsuccessful. I was doing half day convention tickets, so it was no big deal when genie+ was around. Now with the advanced ride reservation and waterpark perk is a whole new game.

There was someone on the Touring Plans chat getting the runaround adding kids last year too, I think they got it sorted but that's the only thing other recent report I've heard with issues.

FWIW: If you see a hidden deal, you can specifically put your kids in the search and if the hidden deal accommodates the number of people it should still show up, but now list all of you. I'd screen shot every step of the booking in case something happens later - but here's a hidden deal from my test search just now that says 2 adults 2 children in it.




Funnily enough though - when you get to the last booking page it no longer states the 2 adult 2 child - but has a "kids stay free" box!

I know this is the PL thread but there is a source for PL prices that are refundable and you may not have heard about it.

If you are a Disney+ subscriber you can book A/S Sports std room anytime in July for $99 plus tax.

I just booked 7/26 to 8/1 for 674 all in. Using gift cards will yield more savings.

Hope this helps someone.

FWIW and Beware:
I just saw a Sports hidden deal on Priceline on 8/4 for $155 - BUT not a worthy listing.
Comes in less than the non-hidden Priceline deal and Disney regular pricing, but loses to the Disney Stay Longer and Save deal by $1 when booking a 1-night. If you book a 5-night, the Disney Stay Longer is $5/night less.

I also saw an AoA on 8/3 - but that appears to be a Little Mermaid Standard room and not a deal either.

So far did not see any other dates with deals, but didn't look too far yet - just wanted to make sure people don't jump on any crummy hidden deals - always do the math and compare to other current discounts, especially when those are refundable and hidden deals are not.!

Data Point

Today is June 7th

I did a search for 6/15-6/19 and a very sad E.D. showed up for AS Sports with a whopping 8 dollars off.



Last year there were all kinds of deals in June 2024.

This year not so much.

I'm glad it's not just my search skills. I haven't been able to find anything either.
