Great Deal! Save $40 off $80 Hotel Stay with Booking.com

Is this deal still valid. I dont see it on aa.com

Shawn,
Not such an awesome deal from where I see it. I went online to check it out by trying to recreate a reservation through Booking.com that I made yesterday. Turns out that with the $40 discount I am only paying $28 more than I did yesterday for the same 2 day reservation- Booking.com apparently had a different price structure for this deal than the one I got yesterday. I guess I would have saved a few dollars if I had only booked one night but certainly not enough to pay me for my time. It literally would have been chump change. Are you doing any new creative hacks that have a bigger payout than a few dollars? Some of the older ones are awesome!

Check out the terms and conditions before you waste your time on this one. This is longer than the Declaration of Independence and most likely our Constitution (Haven’t done the word count). Hassle factor too much …. I’ll pass on this one.

Full Terms & Conditions
Under the Booking.com Incentive Program certain new, or existing, customers of Booking.com (each a “Participant”) are invited to earn Incentive Bonuses when making use of the Booking.com online reservation services, and/or leaving guest reviews after having stayed at accommodations booked through the Booking.com platform. Participants join the program by clicking on specific promotions or links (as described below). The following Booking.com Incentive Program Terms apply to the Participant participating in the Booking.com Incentive Program.

Booking.com may suspend, terminate, or change the Terms and Requirements of the Booking.com Incentive Program Terms at any time and for any reason.

Information About the Participant:

If you do not finalize the reservation after clicking on the Incentive Link, your participation in the Booking.com Incentive Program will be stopped.

Eligibility

Participants must be 18 years of age and older. People from the US states of New Mexico and Hawaii, as well as employees of The Priceline Group Inc. and its affiliates, are excluded from participation.

Incentive Bonus

An Incentive Bonus can be earned as follows:
The Participant clicks on the referral link (the “Incentive Link”) as provided on the Booking.com website, in a Booking.com email promotion or a Booking.com banner, or promotion on other websites, and creates an Eligible Reservation through the Booking.com website; and/or
The Participant leaves or has left a (completed) guest review through the Booking.com website; and/or
The Participant has downloaded the Booking.com app and creates an Eligible Reservation through the Booking.com website; and/or
The stay of the Participant as part of the Eligible Reservation is confirmed by the booked accommodations to Booking.com; and
To obtain the reward as a credit to their credit card, the Participant has, within a reasonable time after the stay, either created a user account and saved a valid credit card in the account settings or provided a valid credit card on the provided digital form. American Express is not currently an accepted credit card.
Certain Incentive Bonuses may be limited to certain users (e.g. users who have not previously booked with Booking.com) or certain bookings (e.g. specific destinations). Where applicable, this will be described in the promotion.
For certain properties, the reward is given to the Participant at the time of booking. In these cases, the reward value is deducted from the total price of the reservation and the Participant pays the full balance at the time of booking.
A reservation is considered an “Eligible Reservation” when it has been made by clicking on the Incentive Link and the total cost of the reservation as made through Booking.com (excluding any additional costs incurred during the stay directly at the accommodations) is greater than the minimum transaction value communicated in the promotion and at minimum two times the value of the Incentive Bonus to be earned by the Participant.
Booking.com will only recognize one Eligible Reservation per Participant, per campaign to count for an Incentive Bonus. Participants may only receive Incentive Bonuses from a maximum of 3 different campaigns per year, including Refer-a-Friend campaigns.
Booking.com will, if it has determined in its sole discretion, that the Participant has complied with and fulfilled the Booking.com Incentive Program Terms, credit the Participant with the bonus (the “Incentive Bonus”) as described in the invitation to participate in the Booking.com Incentive Program. The Participants will then receive the Incentive Bonus as a credit to the credit card saved in the user account setting. Booking.com may send an email and/or test message to the Participant as necessary to remind that the creation of the user account and the storage of a valid credit card is needed to obtain the Incentive Bonus.
An Incentive Bonus not redeemed within 12 months after its confirmation by Booking.com will automatically expire.
The Incentive Bonus cannot be transferred, exchanged for any cash or money, or sold.
The Participants will be responsible for any taxes or charges that may be arise due to the earning and payout of the Incentive Bonus.
The Booking.com Incentive Program can only be used for personal, non-commercial purposes.
The calculation of the Incentive Bonus is an automatic procedure based on the use of the Incentive Links and the creation of Eligible Reservations through the Booking.com online reservation services. Booking.com retains the right to, at its sole discretion, review the compliance with the Booking.com Incentive Program terms.
The Participant may only use Incentive Bonuses on their own behalf.
Displaying Incentive Links

The Participant shall not share or publish the Incentive Links where there is no reasonable basis for believing that recipients are genuine travelers and appreciate the invitation stated through the Incentive Link and not in violation of applicable anti-spam laws.
