Hotwire.com Travel Website Review and Logo
For the traveler looking for the best deals, Priceline.com is a useful tool that lets you place bids on hotels and flights. You can bid what you think the trip is worth and hope you luck out with a great deal. Priceline doesn’t charge you booking or cancellation fees, and it does its best to help you out with last-minute travel plans. It’s nice being able to book a rental car and tickets to see a show or attraction all in advance. Users leave generally positive feedback; they suggest being open to unusual flight times if you want to capitalize on the deals offered. The website is fairly easy to navigate but could be overwhelming to newcomers.
