El Cortez boarding pass deal

My wife and I are flying into Las Vegas next Saurday. I know the El Cotez will give you free play or match play for showing your boarding pass. My question is how long do you have from when you land to do this. I've read/heard you have up to three days and I've read/heard you only have 24 hours. Could someone who has done this most recently please let me know the answer. 

Thank you

 When I was ther last month I asked the same question and was told you had 3 days. You could call the El Cortez, ask for the players club and they will be able to answer your question.

It is for Southwest airlines. Free drink, and $25 matchplay. Even money only. 

Good Luck.

 

Thank you for the update.

 


Does anyone know if this promo is once per year, lifetime, or no limit?

 As told to me last time I was there in March, once a year, unless you earn 1000 points ( I believe that is the amount), then you can do it again. To be sure, you can call the El Cortez @ 702 -385-5200 and ask to speak to someone at the Players Club.

Any airline works.  There is a limit on how many you can redeem in one year.  I think it's 3.  You also get a spin on the kiosk wheel, for $10-1000 in freeplay.  I tried to redeem this on my Labor Day and NYE trips last year. They told me I had already hit the limit so I was no longer eligible.  That did not seem right, but I did not make a fuss.  On Jan 1st, there were 2 Boarding Pass offers waiting for me to collect.  I think their software that manages these is a little screwy.

When a boothling tells you that you "can't" redeem or aren't "eligible" for a promo, the chance that you're being told the truth is 27% (16% if it's near the end of the boothling's shift). Of course, that phraseology is just code for "I'm not sure, but I'm too fucking lazy to look it up or ask my supervisor, so I'll just lie to this guy and maybe he'll go away."

 

So if you get told something by a boothling that doesn't seem right, ask to talk to its supervisor. You'll get a death glare from the boothling, but chances are, your issue will be resolved favorably. I can't recount the number of times the supervisor has told the boothling that yes, I'm eligible for this offer.

 

It's a little-known fact, but candidates for boothling positions are given an IQ test. If their IQs are over 80, they're assigned to other positions.
