Anyone made a hotel booking on http://traveluxury.org/home.html

i dont see any discounts.

with all the simultaneous free night offers, looks like this site is trying to make it seem like its THEIR offer, not a hotel offer, in order to get bookings/commissions.

not a new strategy, but a great time to use it.

I see on the FS site a Stay Longer - Third Night Free rate at $410 per night. Three nights comes to $820 = 628 booked directly.

Saw an article today saying the Seychelles are in deep doodoo - their economy has finally hit the wall after years of overspending and the IMF has imposed stiff conditions on further lending. Inflation is rampant and the currency is shot to hell. All this at the same time that travel bookings have tapered off sharply.

So good deals may be forthcoming, I guess.
