Late last month, Travelocity started offering a price difference refund for online hotel bookings To travelers who book hotel rooms on its Web site then later find the same reservation at a lower price online anytime before the day they check-in, Travelocity is offering to refund the difference between the prices, the Wall Street Journal reports.
Also through December 30, travelers who find a lower booking price, will receive $50 toward future travel booking on the Web site.
According to the Wall Street Journal, travelers who want to take advantage of that offer, would need to send a screen grab or other proof of the lower rate, to Travelocity.

Hotells deals offerings are spreading.
About a month ago, online hotel booking sites Orbitz.com and Expedia.com, cut booking fees for hotel reservations through their sites. Booking site Travelocity.com also signaled it may cut hotel booking fees to compete. The whole trend was started last month by Orbitz.com which announced a reduction of the service fee it usually charges to book hotels rooms on its Web site trough July 15. According to some estimates, the move will save customers about $7 a night.
Also last month, Orbitz made a dramatic change in the way it displays hotel pricing with it's "Total Price" search future. That platform will now display taxes and fees alongside the hotel rate from the very beginning of a search for a room and not at the end of the booking process as is standard right now.
