Yes, and the paid stay is cancelable same day, so if your plans change...

The PB makes a good safety backup in case flights/plans change for me, but needs 2 days advance to cancel, so I have to weigh losing 5k as insurance cost after the 2 day mark, vs. booking a paid stay.

I think they are going alphabetically --

Dubai and Connecticut are loaded.

New York is probably on its way but at the end of the pack.

US usually opens first. Seems reversed this time.

I got one in CT but MD seems to not be up yet.

As always, please let me know if you see any markers on the map that are out of place.

Thanks,

Edit: oops, just realized that onthego beat me to it, guess that's what I get for rushing to post without reading the thread! Either way, hope it's useful for some!
Thanks for the map! So informative!

Screwed!

I am at an IHG hotel in Japan - a pretty expensive one at that too - and have been up since midnight (almost 2 AM now) - and the damn PB site still shows me the old breaks only (expiring 11/30). And the less said of the awful Internet speed, the better...I guess I might as well go back to bed.

Don't go by that. That doesn't go live until several hours after the hotels do... Just manually search for the hotels from the bloggers list for PB
