Help
Have we answered your question?
How do I find a Last Minute Deal? Can you help me navigate?
From the Last Minute Deals page, follow
these five steps:
- CHOOSE your departure city and preferred
dates of travel.
- LOOK at the variety of packages
available for your dates.
- FIND the experience that interests
you most.
- ENHANCE the experience to make it
exactly what you want, from your accommodations
to any optional extras you'd like to add, and
GO!
If you are looking for a specific destination
or activity, it's also easy to use the search box
located in the upper right corner of the homepage.
Simply type in your search criteria, click go, and
you'll get a list of available packages that include
your search term(s).
Availability changes all the time, so
if you don't see what you're looking for right away,
check back again later and you may find it!

When will you originate
from my city?
We launch service from new cities on a continuing basis.
As of July 2003, we serve 76 markets in North America.
We appreciate your patience as we finalize the details.
Check back with us soon!
Return To top
Will you have the same
great deal next month that you have today?
We work closely with our partner travel providers to
offer customers the best trips at the last minute.
Since we work with last minute inventory, we do not
know what packages will be available more than 14
days in advance. And as soon as we know, you know.
Our dynamic technology constantly queries reservations
systems to find what's available right now at the
best prices.
Due to the dynamic nature of our offerings, we cannot
predict or guarantee the future availability of any
of our packages.
If a package is listed on the site now, it's available,
but we do not know if or when the same package will
be offered again.
Return To top
Can I buy a package more
than 14 days in advance?
Since we offer last minute inventory, we do not know
what our offerings will be more than 14 days in advance.
And as soon as we know, you know. Our dynamic technology
constantly queries reservations systems to find what's
available right now at the best prices.
Return To top
How late can I buy a package?
We sell packages for domestic (US) destinations up
to three hours before the flight departs and for international
destinations up to five hours before--for the truly
last minute customer!
Return To top
Can you hold a package
for me?
Our great deals sell out fast, so we do not hold packages
for customers. Because availability changes all the
time, we recommend that you buy a package as soon
as possible after choosing it.
Return To top
Do you reserve any inventory
that is not listed on the site?
No, everything we offer is shown on the site. We do
not have any special reserved packages or inventory.
Due to the last minute nature of our inventory, our
packages can sell out at any time and availability
is limited. So if you see a package you like, we suggest
you buy it right away. It may be gone when you next
log on!
Return To top
Do you offer a specific
destination or a specific activity?
If you have a specific activity in mind (such as golf,
tennis etc.), the best way to find your package is
to use the keyword search. Simply type in your keyword,
click go and you will be offered a list of available
packages.
Return To top
If you know where you want to go, use the Destination
Search. Simply select your departure city, destination
state (or international) and city and we'll show you
all the available packages that fit your search criteria.
I know where I want to
go. How do I find out if you have my destination?
Destination Search makes finding your perfect getaway
easier than ever! If you already know where you want
to go, simply find the Search by Destination box at
the top of the homepage, choose your departure city,
your destination state (or international), and destination
city and GO! We'll show you all the available packages
that fit your search criteria.
Remember, availability changes all the time, so if
you don't see your city, check back again later and
you may find it!
Return To top
Can I take a longer trip
or do you just offer weekend travel?
We currently specialize in weekend getaways and longer weekend
trips. Thus, our arrangements with our air travel providers are
structured in such a way that the earliest we depart in the week
is Thursday, and the latest we return in the week is Tuesday with
a mandatory Saturday night stay. We are growing rapidly though,
and we're planning to extend to longer trips in the future.
Return To top
Can I take a trip mid-week?
The arrangements we have with our air travel providers are
structured in such a way that the earliest we depart in the week
is usually Thursday, and the latest we return in the week is normally
Tuesday with a mandatory Saturday night stay. However, we do offer
mid-week departures and returns for travel to Las Vegas, as well as
Wednesday departures from select cities to Hawaii. Mid-week travel
may be an option to and from other destinations in the future, so
keep checking back.
Return To top
What types of packages
can I find on your site?
Flight & Hotel: This package includes your flight,
your hotel accommodations for the duration of your
stay and often some additional options to add-on if
you would like.
Flight plus: This package includes your flight,
PLUS one other component that is NOT a hotel room,
such as car rental, pre-paid dinner, hot-air balloon
ride, etc. This package type is intended for use when
you already have a place to stay in your destination.
Hotel plus: This package includes your hotel
PLUS one other component that is NOT a flight, such
as car rental, pre-paid dinner, etc. This package
type is intended for when you already have transportation
to your destination.
Return To top
Do you only sell packages?
Last Minute Deals are packages only. Packages consist of two or more components. Last Minute Deals do not include individual tickets for airline travel or reservations for hotel rooms.
Return To top
What characterizes a luxury
getaway?
Our luxury properties are characterized by their commitment
to excellence in design, decor, service, and overall
customer experience. These range from world-class
properties with exceptional service, hospitality,
and attention to detail to one-of-a-kind boutique
hotels featuring unparalleled design and style.
Return To top
Do you sell last minute
cruises?
We currently do not sell cruise packages, but we are
looking into cruises for future expansion.
Return To top
Are your air and hotel
packages "All-Inclusive"?
We do have some All-Inclusive hotel properties available.
If you choose an All-Inclusive hotel property, meals
and most drinks will normally be included in your
total cost. Please read the hotel information very
carefully to determine the details of what is included
in an All-Inclusive hotel property. All-Inclusive
package prices are based upon double occupancy (two
people per room). There is a supplemental per person
charge for each additional guest that is not included
in the price of this package. The supplement must
be paid upon checkout from the hotel. Please contact
the hotel directly for the amount of this charge.
Return To top
How can I be sure I'm
getting a good deal?
We negotiate with our partners to bring you the best
prices available for last minute travel. Finding a
better price on a comparable trip at the last minute
for the same dates is next to impossible! And when
you consider that we've handled all the arrangements
with our top-tier partner airlines, hotels and other
travel partners, you'll find that our packages are
an unbeatable deal.
Return To top
Is there an additional
charge for single travelers? Can I take a trip by
myself?
Although we list our prices per person based on double
occupancy, you can travel by yourself. After you have
chosen a package, you will have the option to enter
the number of people traveling. Simply choose one
adult when prompted for the number of people and advance
to the next page.
Traveling by yourself with some of our packages will
increase the price per person, however, because you
will need to pay for the entire hotel room (or rental
car) instead of sharing the cost with another person.
The initial prices quoted on the site are per person,
based on double occupancy.
Return To top
Do you have special prices
for children or senior citizens?
No, our prices are the lowest around for last minute
travel, so we do not offer any discounts for children
or senior citizens.
Return To top
How do you price for infants
traveling without their own airline seats?
If you choose infants (under 2) traveling without airline
seats, we assume the child will be sitting on a parent's
lap during flight. Your final price per person will
not reflect any charges for a child seated on a parent's
lap. Please contact Customer Service after your purchase,
so that we may enter your infant's information into
your reservation. If you would like a seat for the
child, please choose "infants (under 2) with airline
seat." Charges will apply.
If you are traveling internationally with an infant,
please contact the airline directly upon booking your
getaway. The airline may assess additional charges,
and documentation such as birth certificate may be
required.
Return To top
Why should I add optional
recommendations to my package online instead of waiting
until I get there to book them?
In addition to saving you money, we like to save you
time. We understand that when you're booking a getaway
at the last minute, it's not always easy to make plans
to enjoy while on your getaway. Since we negotiate
great deals through partnerships with various travel
and entertainment providers, we make activities, meals
and other events easy to reserve. We never sell experiences
for more than the retail price and it is unlikely
that you would get a better deal from these providers
on your own.
Return To top
Do you offer bereavement
fares?
Our prices are the lowest around for last minute travel.
We do not offer bereavement fares.
Return To top
Is the entire cost of
my hotel room(s) included in the package price?
Your package purchase includes your room rate and applicable
taxes for domestic (US) travel. If you are traveling
to Canada or Mexico, you may be charged a local "Hotel
Occupancy Tax" upon checkout. If your package includes
a hotel stay in Europe, you will be assessed value
added taxes (VAT) upon checkout. These are the same
taxes that would be assessed if you reserved your
accommodations through a travel agent or with the
hotel directly. The package price does not include
incidentals you may incur such as extra-person charges,
extra-bed charges, resort fees, gratuities, energy
surcharges, parking fees, telephone fees, room service,
movies and mini-bar. Extra-person or extra-bed charges
may apply if you reserve one hotel room for more than
two people (including children). Please contact the
hotel directly if you would like more information
about possible extra-person charges.
Return To top
Is the entire cost of
car rental included in the package price?
Our car rental packages include the rental rate and
taxes. Except as specifically noted as included in
the rate, items such as surcharges (such as frequent
flyer tax recovery, airport concession fees, special
assessments, age, registration and license reimbursement
fees, etc.), optional coverages (such as LDW, PAI,
LIS, ALI, PEC, and PEP), fuel service, additional
driver, drop-off, and other charges are NOT included
and must be paid for directly to the rental car company.
Gasoline, upgrades from your reserved car type, or
additional equipment (such as child seats or ski racks)
are NOT included.
Return To top
Will there be any extra fees or costs
charged for my travel package??
Like our prices? You'll like them even more when you buy your
package because the price you see up front is the price you pay!
Our package prices now include all applicable taxes and fees.
The only price changes you may experience will be from options that you decide
to change, such as your travel dates, number of travelers, departure city,
and your choice of flight, hotels or other items. Rest assured that the total
price of your travel package will be updated and displayed to you prior to
purchase, so you’ll know exactly what you’re paying before we ask for any billing
information.
Also, remember that you may incur other charges while traveling, such as
hotel extra-person or extra-bed charges, resort fees, gratuities, hotel energy
surcharges, parking fees, telephone fees, room service, movies, mini-bar, or
rental car insurance, gasoline, and other incidentals, that are not included
in the package price.

How do I get started buying
a package?
Now you can browse Last Minute Deals either by date
or by destination. If you're searching by date, use
the Search by Date box to choose your departure city
and the dates you wish to travel. If you're looking
for a specific destination, use the Search by Destination
box to choose your departure city, your destination
state (or international), and destination city.
The site will return a list of available packages that
fit your search criteria. Find your package, choose
your components, and go!
Return To top
Do I have to buy online?
Yes. Last Minute Deals are only available for online purchase.
Return To top
Do I need to register
in order to buy a package?
No, but in order to buy something, you will need to
enter your credit card and billing information so
we can process your order. All purchases need to be
made on line, but if you have any questions or need
assistance, please contact Customer Service.
Return To top
I'm experiencing technical
difficulties. What do I do?
If you experience any technical difficulties, please
contact Customer Service
right away and a representative will assist you with
your purchase.
Return To top
What credit cards do you
accept?
We accept Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover
and Diner's Club.
If you would like to use a debit card, please be aware
that most debit cards have daily limits of $500.
If your package exceeds $500, please call your bank
and request that they release the funds before attempting
the transaction.
Return To top
I haven't received my
confirmation email yet.
If you have not received your confirmation email, we
are still processing your order and confirming your
bookings with our partners. Please be patient. We
will send it to you shortly.
Return To top
Why are the taxes so high?
What are the taxes for? (Why are there taxes included
in the price and what are they for?)
Federal, state and local governments assess a variety
of taxes and fees in association with traveling and
transportation. For example, U.S. airports charge
airlines a Passenger Facilities Charge or PFC for
every passenger on arriving and departing flights
to cover airport costs. Airlines, in turn, pass that
fee on to us and we pass it on to you. If you buy
a flight from the airline directly, they would pass
this nominal charge directly to you.
Because state and local governments have the ability
to set their own tax rates, we are unable to give
you all the potential rates.
Return To top
Can I use vouchers or
points to purchase a package?
At this time, the only forms of payment we accept for
our packages are credit cards and debit cards. We
do not accept vouchers, points, unused airline tickets
or frequent flier miles as payment. However, all of
our reservations are eligible for frequent flier credit.
We recommend that you submit your account number to
the airline during check-in so that your miles will
be credited. Our reservations are currently not eligible
for points credit from hotels.
Return To top
Can I buy a one-way ticket?
All of our packages that have flights include roundtrip
airfare. We do not sell one-way tickets. However,
we often hear the comment that many of our bundled
packages with roundtrip airfare are better value than
airfare alone!
Return To top
Can I purchase a Gift
Certificate?
No. Unfortunately, we do not offer Gift Certificates at this time.
Return To top
Can I use more than one
credit card to purchase a package?
At this time, our technology requires that package
payments are made with one credit or debit card.
Return To top
Can I purchase travel
for someone else?
You may purchase a travel package for someone other
than yourself. When purchasing a last minute travel
package, you will notice separate fields for the names(s)
of the travelers and the credit card billing information.
If you are purchasing for another person, please insure
that the names of the travelers match their government-issued
photo identification in order to avoid problems with
check-in or airport security.
Return To top
How will the increased
security measures at airports affect my getaway?
Your airline tickets will be issued as E-tickets. Due
to heightened FAA security requirements, only ticketed
airline passengers will be allowed to proceed through
security checkpoints. As an E-ticket holder, you may
need to check in at a ticket counter or present the
appropriate documentation in order to proceed through
security. Individual airlines will determine which
documentation (i.e. paper tickets, boarding passes,
or reservation confirmations) will be allowed. Therefore,
we strongly recommend that you bring your confirmation
email with you to the airport.
Other increased security measures at the airports might
include:
- No parking or waiting at curbs.
- Passengers must carry government-issued photo
ID such as driver's license or passport.
- Passengers will be allowed only one carry-on plus
one personal item (such as purse or laptop).
- All carry-on baggage will be subject to extensive
search.
- No knives of any kind or similar sharp instruments
will be allowed on airplanes.
Return To top
How will I receive my
airline tickets and hotel reservations?
All packages are available for online booking, and
all travel is "paperless." Airline tickets are issued
as E-tickets, thus you simply need to present your
ID and airline confirmation number at the airport
to obtain your boarding pass. Hotels and other partners
are notified by us and given your reservation information.
To be sure you have all the necessary information to
make your Last Minute Deal as enjoyable as possible,
we suggest you print your confirmation and itinerary
email and bring it with you when traveling.
Return To top
What do I need to bring
with me?
It is necessary to carry a valid, government-issued
photo ID with you during your getaway. This ID should
be a driver's license and major credit (NOT debit)
card if you are renting a car as part of your last minute
travel experience, and a passport if you are traveling
internationally. Please be aware that documentation
requirements vary depending upon the country you plan
to visit and your immigration status in the United
States. For the most detailed up to date information
on overseas travel, visit www.state.gov/travel for
the latest travel advisories.If you are not a U.S.
citizen, please contact the embassy of the country
to which you are traveling to determine your visa/
entry requirements.We strongly recommend that you
bring your confirmation email with you, especially
if your package includes air travel. Heightened FAA
security may require you to show your confirmation
email as proof that you are a ticket-holder.
Return To top
Can I buy just an airline
ticket or just a hotel room?
We sell packages, which allows us to offer excellent
value to our customers. In fact, we often hear the
comment that many of our bundled packages are better
value than airfare alone!
All of our offerings are composed of at least two components
from the following list: flights, hotel accommodations,
rental car and entertainment options such as walking
tours, ski passes, pre-paid meals, balloon rides and
more. In addition to our Flight & Hotel packages,
we also offer a variety of other package combinations,
such as Flightplus and Hotelplus.
Return To top
How many people can I
book per hotel room?
Accommodating more than two persons (including children)
in one hotel room may result in extra-person charges
upon checkout from your hotel. Please contact the
hotel directly if you would like to inquire about
extra-person charges. Our pricing is based on double
occupancy.
Return To top
Do I need travel insurance
for short weekend getaways?
Travel insurance is always a good idea just in case
you cannot go for some unforeseen reason.
Return To top
Are there any specific
rules or age requirements to renting a car?
Most rental car companies require that renters be at
least 25 years of age and have a valid driver's license
and major credit card. If you're booking a rental
car with us, check the terms of service listed on
the rental car page before booking, and if you have
further questions, please call the rental car company
directly for their policies.
Also, please note: Insurance, gas, upgrades and charges
other than the base price of the car plus tax are
not included in the price of the package, and must
be paid for at the counter.
Return To top
What should I know before
buying a package to an international destination?
All packages for international destinations have a
Before You Go section, which includes such information
as entry requirements, currency and local transportation.
Be sure to read this information carefully before
buying an international package, and please keep in
mind that international travel generally requires
that you have a valid passport. If you are traveling
internationally with an infant, please contact the
airline directly upon booking your getaway. Some airlines
may assess additional charges and may require documentation
such as a birth certificate.
Return To top
Why are there no other
flight times available?
Our dynamic technology allows us to show you the best
deals available right now for the travel dates or
destination that you have selected. Flight availability
changes all the time, so it is possible that if you
check back later, new flights will appear. It is also
possible, however, that our availability will drop
off, so flight times you previously viewed may no
longer be listed. If you see a package you want, it
is best to buy it immediately as last minute availability
is limited.
Return To top
Is the entire cost of
my hotel room(s) included in the package price?
Your package purchase includes your room rate and applicable
taxes for domestic (US) travel. If you are traveling
to Canada or Mexico, you may be charged a local "Hotel

a hotel stay in Europe, you will be assessed value
added taxes (VAT) upon checkout. These are the same

may apply if you reserve one hotel room for more than
two people (including children). Please contact the
hotel directly if you would like more information
about possible extra-person charges.
Return To top
What is the quality of
the hotels included in the packages?
We have partnered with the leaders in the travel industry
including Sheraton, Westin, Hyatt, Inter-Continental,
and Holiday Inn hotels. In order to provide a range
of package types and prices, many of our packages
offer you a choice of which hotel you would like.
We provide full details of each property and you will
always know what hotel you will be booked in before
you complete your purchase.
Return To top
Will I be charged additional
hotel taxes?
If your package includes only domestic (US) travel,
all taxes are included in your final package price.
If you travel to Canada or Mexico, you may be charged
a local "Hotel Occupancy Tax" upon checkout. If your
package includes a hotel stay in Europe, you will
be assessed value added taxes (VAT) upon checkout.
These are the same taxes that would be assessed if
you reserved your accommodations through a travel
agent or with the hotel directly.
Return To top
Will my hotel room be
like the one shown in the pictures?
The pictures we display in the hotel details are a
representation of the room possibilities at each hotel.
You may not be booked in a room just like the one
in the pictures.
Return To top
Will I be subject to
additional security checks?
As an E-ticket holder, you will need to check in at
a ticket counter and present the appropriate documentation
in order to proceed through security. Please be aware
that you and your bags will receive extra attention
and scrutiny from security due to the last minute
nature of your purchase.
Return To top
Can I use points or redeem
airline miles to purchase a package?
At this time, the only forms of payment we accept for
our packages are major credit cards and debit cards
with a Visa or MasterCard logo. We do not accept vouchers,
points, unused airline tickets or frequent flier miles
as payment. However, all of our packages are eligible
for frequent flier mile credit. We recommend that
you submit your account number to the airline during
check-in so that your miles will be credited to your
account. Our reservations are currently not eligible
for points credit from hotels.
Return To top
Can I book a package for
two people departing from different cities (and meeting
at our destination)?
Currently, our technology does not allow the purchase
of a package for travelers who have different origination
cities, so the best way for two people to travel from
two different cities to the same destination is to
look for two different types of packages- one package
for each traveler.
The first package is a flight & hotel package, which
the first of the two travelers would purchase as a
solo traveler. The full cost of the hotel room will
appear in this package.
The second package, purchased by the second traveler,
is a flight plus package, such as our Fly & Drive
option, which includes a flight and rental car. This
second package does not include hotel, but would include
the full price of the car.
Both travelers together will pay no more this way than
if they bought one package that included the flight
for two, the hotel room and the car, though distribution
of this cost may not be even. We leave the fair division
of your travel costs up to you.
Return To top
Do you offer any packages
geared to specific communities or demographics?
Our packages are often written with a theme, event
or mood in mind and recommendations and suggestions
are added accordingly. We offer a few packages each
week that include suggestions of particular interest
to gay travelers, and sometimes we may suggest events
or activities that have ethnic, regional or religious
appeal.
We intend our suggestions to add value to our offerings
and allow you to enjoy the perks of planning at the
last minute. We usually offer a variety of packages
to the same destination with the intention that one
will appeal to you. If you want to travel to a specific
destination but the suggestions don't appeal to you,
there is no need to take advantage of them.
Enjoyment of our last minute travel experiences is
not dependent on demographics such as race, ethnicity,
religion or sexual orientation.
Return To top
Can I upgrade my flight,
hotel or car reservations, or make other special requests
for my package?
All available upgrade options are disclosed during
your selection process. When available, there will
be opportunity to select your hotel room or upgrade
your rental car. Due the last minute nature of our
packages, it is not possible to choose your airline
seat during online booking.
Once your package has been purchased, we cannot change
any details of your itinerary.
Return To top
Can I request a specific
airline seat?
Due to the last minute nature of our packages, we do
not assign specific airline seats.

Can I request a meal on
the flight?

receipt that breaks down the individual cost of air,
hotel, or rental car?
We are happy to resend you a copy of your confirmation
email. However, we are unable to provide you with
individual receipts for air, hotel or car inventory.
We sell bundled packages and our relationships with
our suppliers prevent us from disclosing individual
prices.

All purchases are final. In order for us to bring you
continued value on last minute travel through our
national and regional partners, we cannot provide
refunds or exchanges. We cannot change dates or times
of travel, hotel choice or names of travelers after
a package is purchased.

Can I change the dates
or times of my travel?
Since we sell only what's available, we can only guarantee
reservations included in your package at the time
of purchase.

What happens if a flight
or trip is canceled?
As with any trip, call ahead to verify your departure
time and reservation. Our offers are guaranteed available,
but airlines do overbook, and anything's possible
in the world of travel. Please reconfirm where possible.
If your flight is canceled by the airline due to weather,
mechanical difficulties, overbooking, etc., the airline
is responsible for ensuring that you are booked on
the next available flight to your destination. We
cannot re-book you on another flight.

Can I make special requests
or changes after booking my package?

purchase is complete.

Can I change a name on
my package?

carefully. We cannot change a reservation once it
has been made with our suppliers.

What happens if I don't
use a portion of my package?
We sell packages, which allows us to offer excellent
value to our customers. We cannot unbundle our offerings.
While you will not be penalized for any unused portion
of your package, please be aware that if your travel
package includes airline reservations, your return
flight will be subject to cancellation if you do not
take your departure flight. We cannot refund you for
any unused portion of the package.
