when is the best time to make flight and hotel reservations for nov? what's the best site offering lowestrates?

Q. i'm planning to take a trip from LA to Sanfo first week of September. Im wondering if there is a perfect time to purchase flight tickets and make hotel reservations. Any reccomended site offering low rates?

A. The first week of September is over. But probably the best time to book for the first week of November is about now.

How old do you have to be to make hotel reservations?
Q. How old do you have to be to be able to make hotel reservations in OREGON.

A. I don't believe you have to be a certain age to call and make reservations - you do need a valid credit card number though - you may have trouble actually checking in to the room if they ask for id.

Can you cancel a hotel reservation through the hotel if you booked via a travel site?
Q. I recently booked a trip to New York to visit family for New Years. I included a hotel stay in my package. I am now planning on staying with a family friend therefore no longer need the hotel reservation. I looked at the site I booked with and the only way to do so is if you cancel the whole package which I don't want to do. Also, it says the hotel reservation is nonrefundable.

A. If you booked through almost any travel website except the hotels website you are out of luck. Expedia, Priceline, orbit, etc. all of the travel websites are like a travel agent. You pay them, they pay the hotel. You could try to call them but I'm sure they will tell you no based on the fact it is non-refundable. When you book through any of these companies you will get a standard room type which means anything that is leftover. No preference on smoking or non or how many beds. Always try to stay away from these methods of booking rooms because you may get a better rate but you might not get what you expected.
