Re: Hawaii Block - going, going....

I was just able to get a Tapa Resort view room with two double beds as my
only option, at $235/night, though our block was supposed to be $50/night
cheaper.  I could only get it Saturday through Saturday as well.

Ticket opened with the Secretariat.

I booked the IETF block the nights it was available, and hotels.com for
the nights it wasn't. We'll see how many room changes that translates into!

It would seem to be an issue if you want to come a day or two early
though (not available Friday and Saturday before IETF starts)

Subject: Hawaii Block - going, going....

I saw the email for the Hawaii IETF registration when I got home about 30
minutes ago.  I immediately got online to book the hotel, and as of 12:48
(exactly 3 hours after the announcement), all of the Ocean View rooms are
gone as well as the King bed resort view rooms, leaving only the 2 Double
Bed  resort view rooms.  Impressive take rate (assuming at least somewhat
even distribution between King and DB rooms).

I wouldn't be surprised to find the block filled by sometime tomorrow.
