Dbueler's Christmas-New Years TR

dianebec - You just go to the hotel checkin desk the same as if you were paying for the room. Nice to not have to mess with the MLife desk. BTW... they did not charge me the resort fee, even tho the confirmation said they would. From the comments I've read on Myvegas, its about 50/50 if they do or don't.

dbueler,

Thank you. You mention a confirmation. When I reserved my Mirage room, the gal made a point of telling me I would not be receiving an email confirmation, just the number she gave me. She said MyVegas rooms do not get an email. Are you saying you had a written confirmation? Now you have me worried. Did you use any other MyVegas rewards?

No, the only confirmation I had was the conf number she gave me. I did print a copy of the reward email when I cashed in the LP's, but didn't need that or the conf number. Don't sweat it, it's no different than a normal hotel res and will be fine.

I used the Aria brunch buffet reward as detailed in the report. I've used quite a few rewards in the past (steakhouses, B buffet, etc...) but this was my first room reward as I'm usually fully comped at CET. Would use these again as it was easy-peasy.

Excellent Trip Report !!!!!!!!

I like the way that you used a categorized format (I may try that).
It made reading it easy, enjoyable, and with a nice flow.

The Chicago Garbage Salad is really good at Flame
You won't be disappointed that you added it to your "next time" list.

That was very nice of you to "babysit" those 3 kids (both on and off the plane).
I wonder how they would have felt being alone in such a busy airport while waiting for their father
I would have been at least an hour early (just in case).

Thanks for taking the time to write and share.
