Use of VIP Certificates

[LL_Travelfan]

Hi,

I have a specific question on the use of VIP certificates. Suppose I purchase a 4 night auction package and apply one of my $250 VIP Gift Certificates. Since the auction package for that particular property does not allow bookings on Friday and Saturday nights, I would like to buy Friday and Saturday night at the hotel's regular rate via Luxury Link to make that a 6 night stay. On these two extra nights, could I use another $250 VIP Gift Certificate? Does anyone have experience with buying hotel nights through Luxury Link and using a $250 VIP Gift Certificate??? Any insight would be appreciated.

I'm pretty sure that once they got rid of the a la carte offerings, you can only apply the promo GC's to package purchases.

LL_Travelfan & kyshel, we were unable to use a VIP certificate recently when we booked a straight purchase through Jim Sanchez. Understand the VIPcertificates can only be applied to auction or buy now packages.



Worth a question to and confirmation from Jim....things change!

Speaking of VIP certificates, I was pleased to learn we can now enter them directly at the time we win a auction. This is a real plus!

Hi M. Great news! I bid and won an auction over the weekend and the VIP certificate worked quite well!! It as perfect. The page showed the price less my credit. After I won, the confirmation also showed the price less the GC. PERFECT! Now, I haven't checked the credit card but it should be PERFECT! Thanks LL for adding this feature.

Hi kyshel and omegaet,

Thanks for your reply to my specific question. Jim Sanchez confirmed it.

Kind Regards,

What's a VIP? (We're new here)

Do you 'earn' these certificates after booking so many packages through LL?

Looked around but couldn't seem to locate this info - would appreciate it if someone pointed us in the correct direction.

Thanks!
