Mayan Rivieria all inclusive package - $349/person after tax - pretty sure it's a mistake
9
August
Update @ 7:49 AM - Now I'm getting a 'product cannot be booked online' message. For those of you that were able to book while it was still available, I'd be interested to hear from you as to whether or not you get a confirmed booking.
I'm pretty sure this has to be a mistake. There's a 7 night all inclusive package available out of Victoria on Nolitours.com to the Blue Bay Grand Esmeralda in March 2012 for $349/person after tax (flight, hotel, food, drinks, everything). And it's for a deluxe swimup suite as well.
Like I say, I'm assuming someone has entered in the price wrong somewhere. Could be worth a shot though. I find that the worst case scenario with mistake prices is that you get your money back. I actually find that in more cases than not mistake prices are honored. Or who knows, maybe they really are offering an insane discount.
Here's how to find it...
1. Go to http://www.nolitours.com
2. On the right hand side, select going from Victoria to Mexico: Cancun-Rivieria Maya leaving on March 17 and hit Go.
3. You'll see a package for $23 + $326 taxes and fees. It'll stand out because it's $1400 cheaper than the next cheapest package :)
Update: It looks like it only works when you enter in exactly 2 adults.
I can get right up to the booking page where I enter my credit card, with the price verified...
If anyone gives it a shot, let me know. If you do book it, I wouldn't go taking the time off work until you receive confirmation that you're booked. It can also be worth keeping screenshots of the price you paid.

Cannot be booked online - when you call in its for hotel only somehow.
it is a mistake, not available. too bad!
Didn't last too long unfortunately. Congrats to those that were able to book in time.
It's a bit of a tough position for me, because I want to make sure everyone has an equal chance of booking it, but obviously by telling thousands of people about it, the deal can die quickly.
To anyone that may have gotten in on it while it lasted, keep the expectations low for a day or two. Don't book time off work or brag to your friends just yet. :)
Almost every mistake travel price I've booked myself has worked out, with the exception of that Airfare.com deal to South America. But still, I never feel in the clear until a day or two has passed.
Uggh, looks like I missed trying it by about 20 mins. That looked really sweet. And yeah I haven't had a mistake offer not be honored yet. *knocks on wood*
Hope somebody didn't phone them to ask questions about it or something like that.
I agree with dougp. By calling in and asking questions, it alerts them of the error and it will allow them to correct it. In cases where there is an obvious pricing mistake, book first and just hope it's honored.
