Refund Shows up!
My Refund has gone through even before the charge.
The Charge - Refund will = The price after $300 voucher applied = What I was shown at the payment page. ^

Log into your itinerary and scroll down to "Rules and Regulations"...
Note the following:
It seems crystal-clear that one can ditch their hotel, and even modify their flight, if they wish. As far as no-show goes, I would suggest at least checking into your flight online 24 hours before. Perhaps the more inexperienced travelers should consider taking the advice of the numerous veterans of this site at face-value before posting any more redundant and paranoid posts!

No-Show ≠ Cancel
So it's best just to No-Show and not risk any further T&C breach specially if booking was made after the new T&C went in to force.

One question, if one does a no show at a LAS hotel, will he/she get charged for the resort fee? In other words, does Expedia pass our CC info to the hotel?

My understanding is that we pay the hotel directly upon check-in or check-out. As for the 3+ hours of hold time - I think I'll just eat the extra cost over $300 ($80), instead of spending my Sunday tied to a phone.

No, Expedia does not pass on credit card numbers. It depends upon the hotel if you will be charged the resort fee. Last month I booked a hotel through expedia, and when I checked out, wasnt charged the resort fee. Then I noticed that it was built into the taxes and fee that I paid expedia. I noticed this because hotels that had similar nightly rates only had 1/2 the tax.

I think expedia.ca took note of some of my personal info (birthday, FF#, or something). After multiple attempts with new laptops, new credit cards, new tel#, new emails, I still can't get the voucher to book. or maybe the system is smart enough now to stop the voucher from applying when I click non Canada Billing address... I get the following message:
"The voucher code you entered is not valid. Please check the code and enter it again or select I don't have a voucher to continue"
Is anyone experiencing the same problem?

I also have the refund credit posted to my amex, booked friday. Funny thing is the airline hasn't posted the charge yet, so I have a $270 credit balance lol!

BUT the terms of coupon, or at least the revised T&C says if you cancel any portion you will be charged the full amount before the $300 voucher.
No-Show ≠ Cancel
No-Show ≠ Cancel
As a someone who is relatively new to this, can someone explain why a No-Show ≠ Cancel?
Also, for the seasoned FT's who are skipping portions of the package, why would you want to 'check-in' versus just not showing up? Wouldn't that be worse than not showing up at all?

Just want to thank all those leeching on this offer for flights not originating in Canada for ruining it for we Canadians who could have legitimately benefited from a promotion that was directed to us. You've ruined lots of travel plans for a lot of people with your piggish rush to the trough! On behalf our my friends and I who were coordinating dates to get together in LAS next month and were going to book today: Thanks a million! 
You snooze you lose, it's a capitalist market, things changed every minute, i can't go back to tell the airline 5 days later i wanted to fly on day 1 instead of day 2 without incurring a change fee.
And this is from a Canadian and 3 friends who coordinated our trip within 2 hours, and we're doing BUF-LAS so not everyone that bought stole your bit.
so if you really motivated to go, you would've done whatever possible to get it done. As a 10000+ poster, you should know better that mistake fares don't wait for you, you see them, you pounce on it quick.
