Hilton app, or Marriott Bonvoy for hotels, American Airlines or Fly Delta app…

Go on the hotel website for the hotel I’m staying at and book directly through the hotel

Book directly with each airline / hotel involved. If anything goes wrong and you are using a 3rd party you / your parents will be at the bottom of the list to fix the issue.
I rarely have found that these sites have lower prices and often add fees that make any deals not real deals.

I book almost exclusively with Marriott Bonvoy and the airline app. I might go to Travelocity to see what airlines have flights at the times I want, but then I will go directly to their app to book.

Nothing worse than trying to check into a hotel after a long day and ending up stuck behind some bum that booked with Priceline or some other shite

Book them direct at the Venetian or Palazzo. Easy walk to the Sphere without having to go outside

Book directly through hotel and airline. I rarely find it to be that much cheaper and if something goes wrong you’re dealing directly with the company you bought from.
It’s easier to shop around through Expedia, Priceline, etc to get an idea of prices.

Directly through the hotel and airline respectively.
The travel sites are no longer cheaper because of fees and lack of support.

I use the United app for everything. Gold status so makes it much easier to change, cancel, bump poors on upgrades and stand by if needed.

Google Maps.
Go to location. Touch the hotels icon, enter dates and view the data on a map.
It shows prices for all booking sites for every hotel.

Start with Google flights for seeing what airlines, prices, dates, times, etc then book direct with the airline
I generally do something similar with hotels dot com and then book direct with the hotel unless there's a huge difference in price between the two
You'll get a lot more help booking direct with airlines and hotels than a third party. Only exception would be a work trip and reaching out to amex travel for any issues

Hilton app
Anyone have problems with the Hilton app?
I can’t get it to show rates or sync with my account to update my points. It’s a ball sucker.
But when I use the web platform, it works like a charm.
I even tried calling Hilton customer support. They had no explanation and were of no help. I tried deleting the app and reinstalling. Did not work.

I haven’t had any problems yet, but their app redesign sucks

Join Venetian Rewards and book direct to get the best rates. Joining is free.
Venetian and Palazzo may have a special for the Eagles show. I’d recommend booking there; your folks can walk through the hotel to The Sphere.
It’s a great resort with tons to do and lots of restaurants at all price points. Really great shopping too. Your folks won’t need to leave the resort if they don’t want to.
