Why would they double book? Did they expect trouble? Perhaps they abused the comp system and were not entitled to the comped rooms? Super weekend is one of the busiest in vegas and it wouldn't surprise me if management could not extend extra comps to someone who really didn't deserve them. Had they not double booked I would not have these suspicions. Sorry and I hope I'm wrong.
We are currently at the airport but felt a need to reply to this post. so heres how this went down from the beginning. This offer popped into our in box in Sept. We were very surprised by it due to the length of the offer, up until April 1 of 2011. We called right away, didn't even just do it online and spoke with a customer service person and of course we asked the all important question are we blacked out from any dates and she answered with New Years eve only. Super Bowl weekend was a go, so we booked it received the confirmations (which we still have BTW) AND THOUGHT WERE GOOD TO GO. In Dec another prop that we play at offered us "The Big Game" whole works comped weekend which came with party Fri. night and of course the Big Game party on Sunday and 3 nights. Since we attended this weekend last year at this prop and had such a good time we decided to book it as well and wasn't it a damn good thing we did as it turned out! We figured we would offer one set of rooms to a friend or family and actually use the rooms at the Palazzo because it was right on the strip. The other prop that gave us the offer was yes, The Hilton and if you know anything about Vegas is well off the strip. so thats the whole story, BTW there was an excellent article in the business section of the Las Vegas sun on Fri. explaining the Sands new marketing stratedgy and its not good news for anyone who enjoyed actually gambling at those props.
