I will probably be up dropping in for a couple of days in that stretch..but won't be able to commit 'til later so I'm gonna deal with my own arrangements separately.

trigs

just wondering...what is the deal you guys are getting?

JohnnieH

Round trip airfare from Detriot- $148/person

$50/wn @ Flamingo. I suspect we'll get a better bargain before we go.

How much did you guys pay last year? I know airfare was definitely more, what about hotel?

JohnnieH

I believe the flights were $220, and we had to stay in Detroit as the flight time was 6am!

The hotel worked out to $80 each (4 nights) with 4 of us in the room at Harrahs.

Something I do when booking with Harrah's properties, I call the reservations line for a quote rather than using hotdeals, once quoted I ask if adding Lori's reward card to the reservation will change the quote. My last two vacation have changed the weekday rates to comped and decreased the weekend rates by $20. Might be worth a phone call.

Also if part of your group doesn't have total reward cards, the person who has a total rewards card can book other rooms for the rest of party under a program called "Friends and Family". I was offered rates a little better than the hotdeals rate posted on the website. Hope this helps...

moose

Yeah we booked 2 rooms under friends and family.
50 50 50 100 100 50 50 = $450 + tax = $504

Let the good times roll.
