Orbitz Promo Codes

More Ways to Save Money at Orbitz

Smart travelers know that Orbitz isn't just about booking—it's like having a rewards program that actually makes sense. From instant Orbucks earnings to exclusive member pricing, here's how to unlock every discount and make your travel budget go way further.

How to Apply Your Orbitz Discount Code

Getting your Orbitz promo code to work is pretty straightforward when you follow the right steps. The key is making sure you're eligible and applying it at the correct stage of checkout.

1. Download the Orbitz app if you're using an app-specific offer like the 10% hotel discount
2. Select your hotel and make sure it shows "eligible for promo codes" on the booking page
3. Head to checkout and look for the "Promo Code" or "Coupon Code" field
4. Enter your code exactly as provided, without extra spaces or characters
5. Click "Apply" and double-check the discount appears in your total before completing payment
6. Complete your booking with prepayment if required for the discount to kick in

Keep in mind that most Orbitz promo codes can't be stacked with other offers, and some exclude major hotel chains like Marriott, Hilton, and Hyatt. If your code isn't working, double-check that your hotel isn't on the exclusion list and that you're booking the right type of stay.

Earn Up to 4% Back with Orbitz Rewards

The free Orbitz Rewards program turns every booking into future savings, with higher earning rates that make the app your best friend for travel planning.

App Bookings Beat Website Rates Every Time

Booking through the Orbitz app gets you way better rewards than the website. You'll earn 4% back on flights and 3% back on hotels versus just 2% and 1% respectively on the desktop site. For a $500 hotel booking, that's $15 in Orbucks from the website or $25 from the app—a $10 difference that adds up fast if you travel regularly.

Instant Redemption with No Blackout Dates

Unlike those complicated points programs that make you jump through hoops, Orbucks work like cash with a simple $1 Orbuck = $1 off your hotel stay. You can redeem any amount right away without waiting to rack up enough for a full stay, and there aren't any blackout dates when you prepay at booking. This flexibility means you can apply your rewards to over 385,000 hotels worldwide whenever you want to travel.

Unlock Member-Only Insider Prices

Simply having an Orbitz account, using the app, or subscribing to their emails unlocks Insider Prices with 10% or more off select hotels. These deals are marked with a blue "Insider Price" tag and include free cancellation on most properties. The discounts are automatically applied to the displayed price, so you see your savings upfront rather than hunting for codes. It's like having VIP access to better rates just for being logged in.

Score Massive Savings with Last-Minute Deals

Orbitz's flash sales and last-minute offers deliver some of the steepest discounts you'll find, perfect for spontaneous travelers who can book with short notice.

Recent last-minute deals have included incredible savings like the Frontier Hotel Pawhuska dropping from $468 to $152 nightly (67% off) and Westgate Branson Lakes Resort falling from $364 to $85 per night (76% off). These deals typically pop up for travel within a few days and help hotels fill empty rooms while giving flexible travelers amazing value.

Vacation Packages Under $499 Bundle Your Savings

Combining flights and hotels through Orbitz vacation packages gets you better pricing than booking separately, with complete trips starting under $499 per person.

Recent package examples include a Las Vegas getaway with Frontier Airlines and two nights at Luxor Hotel for just $113 per person, or a Denver trip with three nights and flights from Los Angeles for $215 per person. These bundles often include extra perks like complimentary breakfast or resort credits that you wouldn't get booking individually. You'll also earn 2-4% back in Orbucks on the entire package value.

Climb the Membership Tiers for Better Perks

Orbitz's three-tier membership structure rewards frequent travelers with increasingly valuable benefits that can save hundreds annually.

Silver Status (Automatic Upon Joining)

Every new member starts at Silver level with access to member-only pricing, Orbucks earning on all bookings, and dedicated customer service. It's the foundation that unlocks all the other savings opportunities.

Gold Status (4 Nights Annually)

Reaching Gold requires just four hotel nights per year and adds valuable amenities at VIP Access Properties including free WiFi and breakfast. For business travelers or anyone taking a couple of weekend trips, Gold status is easily achievable and gives you tangible value.

Platinum Status (12 Nights Annually)

Platinum members enjoy the most exclusive perks: free TSA PreCheck application (normally $85), up to $50 annual Orbucks reimbursement for travel expenses like seat upgrades and baggage fees, plus free room upgrades and early check-in when available at VIP Access Properties. The TSA PreCheck benefit alone is like getting back what you'd spend on a few fancy coffees each month.

Seasonal Sales and Holiday Travel Deals

Orbitz runs targeted seasonal promotions that make holiday and peak travel more affordable, with discounts reaching up to 32% off popular destinations.

Their Thanksgiving travel deals recently featured The Venetian Resort Las Vegas at 22% off ($292 nightly, down from $1,510 total) and Sonesta Nashville Airport at 32% off ($153 nightly, was $898 total). These seasonal sales typically run for limited periods around major holidays and travel seasons, making it worth timing your bookings around these promotional windows.

Flexible Cancellation and Payment Options

Most Orbitz hotel bookings include free cancellation, giving you flexibility to change plans without penalty. The specific cancellation window varies by property, but many allow changes up to 24-48 hours before arrival. For added payment flexibility, Orbitz accepts Buy Now, Pay Later options through providers like Affirm and Zip, letting you spread costs over time.

Car rental bookings have stricter policies with no refunds for cancellations within 6 hours of pickup time, so plan accordingly for road trip components of your travel.
