the fine print

Deal prices are per person and based on room occupancy (look for details under "When"). "SS" refers to the extra fee a solo traveler would have to pay. Packages are subject to availability and may be blacked out on holidays. Ask when booking whether tips and taxes are covered in the listed price. Where airfare is included, rates are generally based on midweek travel.

If you see this star next to a package, that means it's EXCLUSIVELY for GG readers!
