Did you travel with an RV this summer during the coronavirus pandemic? Does that RV now look like a "hunk of junk" and haunt you daily in your driveway? Hotels.com is here to help: The site is dishing out cash to spend on nights in hotels in exchange for pictures of your dusted-up RV.
The site is appraising photos of the RVs and customers can receive up to $5,000 worth of nights in hotels via a gift card to the site. The method to the madness? "The crappier your set of wheels, the more hotel nights you deserve," according to a news release.
Those interested can submit a photo or video (20 seconds or shorter) of your RV by emailing RVrescue@hotels.com, with further details on the Hotels.com website, including file size requirements. You have until 5 p.m. CST on Aug. 18.
"As travel trends continue to evolve, we want to make sure people don't have to give up living their best hotel life no matter how they opt to travel," Josh Belkin, vice president of the Hotels.com brand, said in a statement. "We're helping to reward the travelers who might be experiencing a case of buyer's remorse from their summer RV trips, with the experience of a night or two in a luxury hotel, for whenever they're ready to travel again."
RVs proved a popular means of travel this summer as Americans opted to take road trips in lieu of flights. And while hotel occupancy has crept up as people have started traveling again, the industry is still looking for ways to get customers in hotels.
Like any promotion, there are other caveats. You need to prove ownership of or provide a rental agreement for the RV. Make sure you dump out any beer cans you may have floating around, too, as the rules prohibit references to alcoholic beverages, tobacco or drug paraphernalia.
Seven winners (or fewer) will be chosen by Aug. 28, judged on the condition or state of the RV, creativity, quality of submission and fit to theme. The grand prize winner will snag the coveted $5,000 prize, while two first prize winners will nab $1,500 and four second prize winners will take home $500.
