Hilton Otaru in Hokkaido is acting funny on the Expedia site as well, but I haven't been able to book anything yet...

These are Expedia special rates, so presumably they're acting as a consolidator -- buying a block of rooms and reselling, only in this case they're reselling below cost!
Or is that not how these 'special rates' work?

just looked again, and it is now gone.
was going to book a second batch ... and it is no more.
I will not worry about air just yet until we know how Expedia will handle this.

Just booked June 30-Jul 4, Independence Day weekend. 4 nights for only $10.88. Now I've to find a cheap ticket. If tickets are too expensive, I might just forego the $10.88.
