$20 Trick

We are leaving for Vegas on Monday and I am seeking some last minute advice.

From your experiences, would it be probable or a waste of time to try and get a Complimentary upgrade at the MC to a Suite? It's our Silver 25 year wedding anniversary.

Just tell them it's your anniversary and ask nicely for an upgrade. If they say 'no' you only wasted 3 seconds....and Happy Anniversary!

Thanks, Alan Leroy

12 hours until departure. Any more opinions out there?

We've stayed at MC many times. Tried asking nicely. Tried the $20 trick. No dice on either. Still, why not give it a shot?!?!? Might be the 1st win of the trip!

Smile and tell them it's your 25th.

Congratulations.

To the check-in person....be very hospitable
Oh...we're so excited...here to celebrate our 25th anniversary...
Check-in person asks for reservation...
Again..let them know how excited you are to spend your 25th anniversary @ MC
I swear..keep on repeating the anniversary aspect...most check-in personnel will check with thier supervisor about offering an upgrade at n/c.
The reason I'm saying this..way back in 2004 we celebrated our 30th anniversary @ the Bellagio. Stressed that fact with the check-in person...he asked us to wait a minute(guessing he talked to his supervisor)...we were upgraded to a suite at n/c. Don't know how things are now...since that was our last LV trip...but it doesn't hurt to try. Congratulations!
