Is it any cheaper using a heimishe broker for Pesach rental in Orlando, or should I just book with VRBO or Booking.com?

My experience was the broker threw in pool heat & was cheaper than airbnb

Yes, overall this might be a good plan but...

Tesla wasn't started by Elon Musk, but they needed him to take the business where it is now.

I don't think any. I have a relative that just flew down to see this place. He says it's all still overgrown besides a sample house or two.  They show you a nearby development and tell you that's what it will look like. Thats it.  He was extremely disappointed

Remember the days when people had tact when writing news, and they didn't just write pointless things that would only inflame non-Jews in the area?

Going to Maui for 9 days in Feb for the first time. I've been doing a lot of research but can't figure out where too stay. I wanted to do 5 nights on points and then I was thinking to splurge on the 4s through UR for last 3 nights. Since my wife and I are there for a while I want to make sure the hotel has a good pool/ beach area with activities. Also going to be in this hotel for shabbos, so I was leaning towards a suite. 

Here are my options:

Hyatt Regency On bedroom Suite - 40k points a night (heard the hotel is a bit under construction, and beach isn't great)
WA Grand Wailea - 95k per night TERRACE VIEW (have Diamond Status hopping for an upgrade, but also heard the hotel is a zoo and not that nice)
Marriott Wiilea - 46k per night plus $200 per night One Bedroom Suite (heard its hard to get chairs by the pool even during covid, and no beach)
Andaz - 30k Per night for a king room - (heard the rooms are really small, and hotel is very cold)
The Westin Nanea Ocean Villas, Ka'anapali - 62k a night One bedroom resort view (can't find enough info on this hotel)

Any thoughts?

Try to stay in the Wailea area.

let me clarify, i want to put my self on a reservation so all on that reservation will get the platinum benefits, including a upgrade,
but i'm not going to be actually flying but i'll check my self in then one of the travelers will use my boarding pass when boarding the plane but by tsa his ID.
So will it work?

So you're asking if they check your ID at boarding?

Hi,

Thanks, I just did that. How can I see in my Hertz account if it was updated to presidential status?

Log out & then back in, it should reflect your new status
