I just discovered bookit.com through a recommendation. Great deals!! Seems everything is included... airfare & resort for very good prices! Is there a catch?
I was trying to find a reasonable trip for 5 nights to a place w/ turquoise water and beautiful beaches from N.O. next spring or next fall. Leaning towards spring now b/c of hurricane season.
Anyway... I had nearly pinned it down to the Maroma beach area in Mexico b/c of price but I can get more for my money if I book through bookit.com. So I can consider other areas now unless I'm missing something.
Have you used bookit.com? Opinions?

I have not used it personally but they come up often in the Travelzoo Top 20 weekly list of deals. I have been using them to monitor flights for next summer along with Kayak because they check several airlines. They seem to be very reputable and if I find a good fare on them I will book.
Whenever you book thru a 3rd party site, you should always follow-up with the hotel (and/or airline) directly a day or so before your trip, just to make sure they have all your info.

That being said, there's plenty of folks that have had not-so-good experiences with bookit. Here's a few links to check out:

I have a similar question:
I've found what looks like a great deal on a hotel in central NYC, in a website named easyclicktravel.
I've never heard about this website before, but the deal is very tempting.
Has anyone got experience booking with this website before?
Thanks.
thanks so much! very useful info in the provided links.
Hi, I have used Book-it to book hotels in Orlando. I have never had a problem. However as previous posters metnioned, I always call to confirm with the hotel that my reservation went through.
thanks!
