I did read about that in your trip report I think. Wasn't it Hotwire though? I thought they dont tell you the name of the hotel til you hit submit.

but i've never experienced being charged fees for errors like you're talking about. that sux.
In Canada we don't have debit cards with the visa logo so we cant' shop online with them

Pisses me off, i have to pay another fee for my return trip, when the damn ticket was $583.00. SHouldnt that include something!!!! hell if i offered to load my own luggage on the plane, would they be willing to shave off a few dollars....that is almost as bad as northwest refusing to give me kleenex on my return flight from JA. We need to start our own airline on ETJ!!!!!
I made sure to check the fine print. As it turns out one of the airlines charges for the baggage, the other doesn't.
