Booked Lhasa @ 4 nights. Lhasa is wiped out of may. The Chinese are quick. Booked anything I could find late april also. So now at least two options. Crazy. I've never seen a PB hotel get booked that quick.

i just booked IC Phnom Penh, but there seems to be an issue with IC Lhasa that shows nights avail. in calendar view but actually nothing available. Also, nothing at all in the month of May. I do not believe Chinese have the vacation days in May other than Labor Day 5/1-3 to be taking any trips.

You have to check all rooms... the first room on the list did not have the point breaks.. further down the list it had.

Indeed! I tend to feel the hotel offering would be good for a road trip across the US but not awfully useful for a european holiday unless you have very strange taste!

They could be booking it up intending to sell it later.

FYI from what I've been reading Feb. & March is banned for tourists. No clue why the gov is not issuing permits to visit, so book april if you must.

From what I see:

4.1-4.2
4.13-4.14
4.15-4.16

Last ones in April available...

Unfortunately, this is China and I am no longer fazed by this kind of BS. I deal with it every day.

? I just booked a number of nights at 5000 points a night at the HIE Lake Perris, CA. It was at 15k points until 10am EST and then went down to 5k. The Beaumont(Oak Valley) property is showing at 5k also.

Maybe they are working through them.
