Enabling email alerts or push notifications can keep you informed about flash sales and special promotions, helping you stay abreast of potential savings. Additionally, Smart Shopping is a helpful comparison tool available through the app that allows you to compare hotel prices and amenities, so if rooms become available or prices drop, you’re more likely to see these opportunities first.
