booking question

How far ahead should i make room reservations?

Not going to Las Vegas until second week of April 2009.

booking question

We make our reservations as soon as we know we are going - directly with the hotel/casino we plan to stay at. As we wait, and wait, and wait, we check the hotel%26#39;s internet prices to see if the rates go down. If they do, we call and ask for the lower rate. They won%26#39;t give you the lower rate unless you ask.

LovesVegas is correct. If you see a rate you%26#39;re reasonably happy with then book now. There%26#39;s always the chance that rates will go up and should this happen you%26#39;re locking in the rate that you%26#39;ve booked at.

Nothing to stop you calling the hotel more than once if rates keep coming down. Vegas hotel rates for any given dates can fluctuate as time passes and may change more than once.

If you do make a reservation, be sure to check the cancelation policy. Some of the lowest rates/specials mean that you cannot cancel without losing all your money if you see something better.

We have just booked for April 09, but if i see a better deal somewhere else, I will cancel our exisiting reservations and rebook elsewhere. However, if nothing changes at least I know we have somewhere to stay at a rate we can afford.

If you find any great deals - send them my way! lol!
