I'm only seeing this in IE, but might just be hidden/ignored in other browsers.

The code is pretty complex, but the part creating the marker is within a loop 
and looks something like this:

blackMarker = new MarkerWithLabel({
  position: new google.maps.LatLng(cityData[i].GoogleLatitude, cityData[i].GoogleLongitude),
  draggable: false,
  map: map,
  icon: "/Content/Images/black-dot.png",
  flat: true,
  labelContent: cityData[i].DisplayName,
  labelAnchor: new google.maps.Point(x, y),
  labelClass: "mapLabel",
  labelInBackground: true,
  labelVisible: displayLabel
});

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Load the application: http://tripplanner.airtreks.com/HtmlUi
2. Add a few cities to your route: SFO, LON, BKK, SYD, SFO
3. Click Get Price
4. JS error occurs here.

The JS Error is as follows:

Honestly, this might be being caused by something higher up, but seems to be 
pointing to something related to the MarkerWithLabel library that I'm using.

Did a little more digging, seems like this error happens anytime a 
MarkerwithLabel is removed from the map with .setMap(null);

For example:

if (defaultCityMarkers) {
  for (i = 0; i < defaultCityMarkers.length; i++) {
    defaultCityMarkers[i].setMap(null);
  }
}

Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

Out of curiosity, do you see the same error if you change "new MarkerWithLabel" 
to "new google.maps.Marker" ?

Also, put try { xxx } catch (e ) { alert(e.message); } around the loop where 
you call setMap(null) to see what error message appears.

Still testing a few things, but to get back to you, the error message when 
using a try/catch is 'this.labelDiv_.parentNode' is null or not an object.

I'm guessing it has something to do with how I'm loading/unloading the markers, 
not actually with this add-on.  I'll return with more info as/if I have it.

Are you calling the code to remove markers from the map before the markers have 
been added to the map.

Request for info was ignored, so marking this bug as invalid.
