Priceline
Travel on, now:
One of the areas where Priceline can offer a deep discount is through its Express Deals. These opaque bookings keep details of the hotel secret until the booking is complete. These are pre-paid, non-refundable, and non-transferable bookings. If your plans aren’t concrete, it’s best to avoid this type of booking.
