I logged on right at 9 Pacific. With all the web traffic, after selecting my hotels and filling out all of the information I got to the confirmation page at 9:07. I get my confirmation e-mail letting me know that I was booked at the LAST (12th) hotel on my list! Really, all 11 choices that I would have preferred were already selected to capacity in 7 minutes? What a joke. Wow, what a dissapointment. I logged on right at 9 Pacific.

It simply feels like they are taking the choice option away from the consumer now. It's now....here is what we can get you....like it or lump it. No more voice on the other end of the phone trying to see what she can get you...no more option of 1 day here and 2 days there. I submitted my choices but we will see if I get anything in that regard. FYI, Hotel Planners.....make your option work on Firefox before you decide this is the only way you can reserve a room.
