It's cheaper for them in the end to have you book direct as opposed to a 3rd party company such as Expedia, Travelocity, etc.

Don’t book travel with Travelocity or Expedia. Book direct. If you need a refund

That's nothing compared to what I had to get back for Archaea. 🙂

Now you tell me. I used Expedia on CB recommendation last September to get a room at the Luxor for the ND game.

I use those sites to find hotels. Cancelation policy is always better direct.

My bad experience was with the filters. I said to only include car rentals
