Easter Island

OK, I have submitted another request at hoteltravel.com for a different hotel (the O'Tai) on the original planned dates for Easter Island (end of March). hoteltravel.com doesn't seem to do online reservations, at least for any of the Easter Island hotels, instead they get in touch manually, so I won't know if the booking has gone through until tomorrow. I am not overly optimistic they will have a room but WTF, it's worth a try.

(I did a fresh check on expedia.co.uk to see that flights were still available at a reasonable price, rather than trust the saved itinerary, after what happened earlier with the Santiago-Punta Arenas flights. They are. I assume they won't soar madly in the next 24 hours.)
