expedia.com taking advantage of the misery in the gulf
I used expedia.com earlier this year to book some hotel reservations in Hawaii and have been on their email list since then. I got this morning and was so disgusted that I unsubscribed from their list and used their feedback link to tell them that I would NEVER EVER under ANY circumstances use their website in the future.




xxxxx, we're always by your side, even through hurricanes.

Jotted on postcards, written in e-mails, or shared aloud, vacation hurricane stories vary, but the frustrations are the same. For many travelers, the threat of storms whips up a flurry of planning apprehension and travel stress.

To help ease your mind, we now offer a hassle-free hurricane promise. In the event that a hurricane does affect your travel, we offer 24/7 customer support, including finding you new travel options. We'll even waive associated Expedia.com cancellation fees.

Now that's a story worth writing home about.
