If anyone is planing on staying at Waldorf and not eating the free breakfast (Hechsher, Early flight, etc') please PM shimino1

If you get free drinks vouchers and don't use them, I'll buy it off you for 10 shek per voucher.

If anyone is planing on staying at Waldorf and not eating the free breakfast please PM dragoddfer, and he may be able to pay for the breakfast.

My experience there was that I didn't receive a material upgrade so if you want it you may consider paying. At other properties I've had success negotiating a cheaper price for a bigger upgrade because of Diamond status but no experience at this property.

Anyone know if cash prices go up closer to date or they generally stay the same?

The prepaid rate is basically the only thing I stand to lose if I cancel my trip. Trying to figure out if it pays to risk it.
