bookit.com opinions -- is there a catch?
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.
