FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: (of interest to editors covering: Travel Trade, Online Travel Deals, NY Business) CheapOair Announces New Year Hotels Sale on over 85,000 Hotel Properties Worldwide NEW YORK, N.Y., Dec. 29, 2008 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- CheapOair announces up to 50 percent savings to its 3MM customer base on over 85,000 negotiated hotel rooms worldwide with the lowest rates online, including last minute hotel rooms from 2-to-5 star Hotels. What separates CheapOair from other OTA's (online travel agencies) is their ability to buy hotel rooms directly from suppliers; this radically reduces the rate, enabling CheapOair to pass that savings onto their customers. Additionally, CheapOair has acquired thousands of unsold hotel rooms at half price. Some of the types of deals that can be found are 4-Star deals at the Sheraton Safari Resort Orlando for $62, Sonesta Bayfront Hotel Coconut Grove/Miami for $77, Crowne Plaza Dallas Gallaria for $77 and Wembley Plaza Hotel - London for $59. For more deals, visit the hotels section (http://www.cheapoair.com/default.aspx?tabid=3664) on the CheapOair website. Customers can compare hotel rates by city, airport, or landmark on notable brand hotel chains. If the hotel purchased on CheapOair is not the lowest rate for the exact date and length of stay, and a lower rate is found on another top OTA, CheapOair will credit their customer USD$10 on their next hotel reservation made through CheapOair.com. A spokesperson for CheapOair remarks, "We see this deal as a win-win proposition. Our customers are very web savvy and budget conscious. More so during economically challenging times, our customers should have the opportunity to purchase affordable travel and take advantage of much needed price breaks as stress free as possible." Because of the directly negotiated exclusive hotel deals, CheapOair customers may also receive free hotel room upgrades and free night stays at nearly half price. As CheapOair's spokesperson further points out, "If you look to book, we offer last-minute deals that include 2-Star rates at 5-Star Hotels as well as luxury suites." CheapOair's easy online search platform gives consumers new and speedy options to view results: the "Qwik View" is a unique display that allows hundreds of hotels to be viewed and compared at once, as well as the standard "List View." When available, many hotel listings show rates using AAA, AARP and other discounts.
