Someone pointed this out to me today. What happened to all of your A/I listings? ABR is the only one that shows up.

Since ABR is downsizing they've cornered the market so they can operate at full capacity?

Something was mentioned that they did not renew the contracts as they didn't allow them to be competitive. I think that was in another thread by our fearless leader.

There's a thread called "Loco Gringo AI Resorts Listings?" that was started on 12/18/12 and is marked FAQ. I just tried to link it for you but I'm on my phone on a bumpy bus in Brooklyn on my way to the pool for a swim and the link didn't work. It's a short thread with about 7 responses but Kay is one of the responders. She addresses the LG changes in her response. It's on page 7 of this forum. Sorry I couldn't link it for you. Hope I left enough breadcrumbs for you to follow the trail.

Hi guys good morning. No in 2013, Loco gringo did not renew their contracts with many of the resorts. The rates we were being given were not competitive with those big online travel agencies and we could not compete.

Instead we will offer vacation packages with Air & Hotel or Hotel only which can be booked in real time. This will provide you with the best possible rates available, and you can book in an instant. We have resorts in the Riviera Maya, Cancun, Cozumel as well as other Caribbean destinations, Florida, Hawaii, etc. All very competitively priced.

If you have 2013 reservations with us for a resort, your reservations are fine.
Please let me know if you have any questions, happy to help.

This is sad, have only used the fruit once and the big O once, neither were for RM vacations though. Sure wish their packages included the ABR but they do not.

Hi guys. Yes the comments from the other thread are correct. We do have packages, and you can also do room only now too!

It is not our choice in regards to packages with the ABR. ABR does not have a contract with the group we are working with in the US. We kept our contract with the ABR for everyone who loves the resort.

if you have specific questions we're happy to help but this new booking system is a way that we can provide the best prices for the resorts to our customers.

Thanks Kay. We were curious what happened to all of the resorts on your A/I page. Now we know!

There are several threads about ABR construction floating around on this forum, trip reports, ai. If you do a search you can read all about it.
