Special $2,700, LOL. You've pretty much hit the nail on the head there. I've been asked (sorry, told) by the hotel where I'm staying to pay up-front for the period 21-23rd. On the hotel's quote, everything is referred to as "F1 Pricing". I asked them, what I am getting in my special "F1 Package" then?
I'm pretty fed up with them frankly, with their money grabbing ways, and blatant about it too. It used to be that hotels put service first, but now it seems the credit card is the real guest they want to look after. But I can't do much about it.
So maybe it's best to avoid the airport on Sunday 23rd and head back a day or two later. Can't bear crowds, esp. unruly ones.
