Intercontinental Amabassador BOGO best time to use in Sydney

[thatsthatmattressman]

Hi folks,

Not looking for anyone to do my legwork here but I cursory review of trying to use the IBAMB 2 for 1 Bogo as an Intercontinental Ambassador in Sydney reveals shockingly high prices for the next few months. I feel dirty paying these prices I can almost get the room cheaper using the PP card for single nights or the stay 2 nights promotion. Aside from using it in another city like Adelaide, Melbourne ...are there any tips on when the best time to use the BOGO is ..if not i am going to be trolling through the weekends till I find something!

Hi have you looked further into the future? Sometimes the prices are more to ones like-ing. I do believe you pay a premium on these certificates. In saying that, it's probably better than the full rate. Good luck on your search

Yep noticed this too - I've used mine to try the IC DB at around $450 for 2 nights in Dec. Intend to keep an eye on any fluctuations in the lead up to opening.

Thanks folks - i thought maybe i was just not using the tools well. I have used these certs 3 times before always overseas. Miami was the last one and they didn't (at the time time) jack the price it was a normal price for night 1 and the 2nd free ..simply fair and reasonable. if i see anything popup reasonable will advise ..good point on ic db though i have a 2 day points booking already

I'm not sure if you saw this post of mine, but I proved (to myself anyway) that IC SYD do indeed jack the price.
