We are an independent publisher. Our reporters create honest, accurate, and objective content to help you make decisions. To support our work, we are paid for providing advertising services. Many, but not all, of the offers and clickable hyperlinks (such as a “Next” button) that appear on this site are from companies that compensate us. The compensation we receive and other factors, such as your location, may impact what ads and links appear on our site, and how, where, and in what order ads and links appear. While we strive to provide a wide range of offers, our site does not include information about every product or service that may be available to you. We strive to keep our information accurate and up-to-date, but some information may not be current. So, your actual offer terms from an advertiser may be different than the offer terms on this site. And the advertised offers may be subject to additional terms and conditions of the advertiser. All information is presented without any warranty or guarantee to you.

This page may include: credit card ads that we may be paid for (“advertiser listing”); and general information about credit card products (“editorial content”). Many, but not all, of the offers and clickable hyperlinks (such as a “Apply Now” button or “Learn More” button) that appear on this site are from companies that compensate us. When you click on that hyperlink or button, you may be directed to the credit card issuer’s website where you can review the terms and conditions for your selected offer. Each advertiser is responsible for the accuracy and availability of its ad offer details, but we attempt to verify those offer details. We have partnerships with advertisers such as Brex, Capital One, Chase, Citi, Wells Fargo and Discover. We also include editorial content to educate consumers about financial products and services. Some of that content may also contain ads, including links to advertisers’ sites, and we may be paid on those ads or links.

Hurry!  Via The Gate, Orbitz is running a flash sale today only, July 24, 2017, until 9:59 pm Central Time.  You’ll save 18% on select hotels for stays through December 31, 2017.

This is a very good discount if you’d be paying for a stay anyway!  But there are restrictions, and most major chains are excluded.

I’ll explain how to book the deal!

Through 9:59 pm Central Time today, July 24, 2017, you’ll save 18% off select Orbitz hotel bookings when you use promotion code “FLASHSALE” at check-out.

Orbitz says most major chains are excluded.  But I did some test bookings and found Best Western, Hyatt, and Fairmont hotels included in the deal.

Here are additional terms:

This could add up to a very nice savings!  For example, you could save ~$65 on a one-night stay at the Hyatt Union Square New York.

If you miss out on this offer, Orbitz has another deal to save 15% off hotels through August 20, 2017.  Use promotion code “TRAVELTIME” to save on stays through December 31, 2017.  The terms of the deal are otherwise identical.

Keep in mind, if you book a chain hotel, you will NOT earn stay credits or hotel points, and your elite status will likely NOT be recognized.  You won’t miss out if you stay at an independent or boutique hotel.

And don’t forget to use a credit card that earns bonus points on travel, like the Chase Sapphire Preferred Card, Chase Ink Business Preferred Credit Card, or Chase Sapphire Reserve.  This is a nice way to double-dip with the Orbucks you’ll earn from being a member of Orbitz’s reward program (free to join).

Bottom Line

Book select hotels through Orbitz by today, July 24, 2017, at 9:59 pm Central Time, and save 18% when you enter promotion code “FLASHSALE” at check-out.

Travel dates are through December 31, 2017.  Most major chains (except Best Western, Fairmont, and Hyatt) are excluded.  And you can use the code twice per Orbitz account, for a maximum savings of $150 per booking.

Let me know if you find a good deal!
