As Caesars goes, so too will MGM Intl. That's my prediction anyway. " I honestly don't get it. They are driving people away. What service industry does that? All I can say is I'm glad I moved my play to Station's casinos. VERY happy with their players club, their free self AND valet parking, the plethora of VP machines with good pay scales, their restaurants and their friendly staff. Our last trip out in April we drove to Durango and were very impressed with everything there. What a beautiful property.

I stopped going to Caesars after my buddy and I both lost our Diamond + status. We were loyal Caeser's fans that were Diamond's for over 10 years and we got locked down during COVID and weren't able to go and lost our Diamond status.

Caesars is owned by Vici Properties Inc., which has in the past 15 years bought up almost all the Las Vegas Strip real estate. An endless supply of investment money from somewhere. Vici Properties hires companies to manage their casinos. The top shareholders of Vici are BlackRock, Vanguard and State Street. This BlackRock Triad interlocking directorate owns 30% of Vici Properties Inc. shares - total control. Which is why prices in Las Vegas have skyrocketed - the monopoly effect.

Caesar’s took away my diamond plus drinks starting May 1st. I talked to a host and he said they took away from around 1000 “unprofitable” players , mostly poker players. Shawn is correct. They should not take away the 4-drink benefit especially without any notice. I used to work in litigation and I am sure Caesar put clauses in their reward agreements but the way they took away the benefits: only from a subset of diamond plus players and without notice makes the case very litigable. I have approached former colleagues for a law firm specialist contact in Nevada. Most importantly I am waiting for the damage to accumulate; 1000 players for $100 per day equal to $100k per day and $3 million per month. At around $6 million, we will likely approach Caesars for a discussion and over $12 million without punitive damages, class action lawsuit will be under consideration. I know of 3 other diamond plus players who are also affected. So we already establish a base class.

Can't force a casino to supply free drinks

Having been coming to Vegas since the late 70s I have experienced all of the changes and it’s not the same. The properties are more sophisticated and eye popping but the casino’s now have all the warmth and charm of McDonald’s. The days where dealers knew you and pit bosses could comp you dinners, shows and line passes are pretty much over. The personalization is gone and if you’re old enough to remember how it used to be it’s a bit sad. We’ve been there over a hundred times for sure and we will keep coming back but behind the snazzy hotels the real Vegas is tough to find and we miss it.

Then when I was a bit older I was introduced to having a casino host, who treated me like a queen, with free fabulous dinners, free shows, free suites and as much as I wanted to drink - really made me feel special. All of that is gone now. I am a video poker player and most places treat VP players like their money doesn't count. I no longer have a desire to go to Vegas.

Agree about the new Caesars comps cutback being very customer unfriendly.

When it comes to using Uber/Lyft from Harry Reid Airport, I have found that it is signficantly cheaper to get a taxi or even take the public bus (which I did on my January 2022 trip) to the Strip. It is also less hassle mainly because both taxis & the bus are all ready to go when I exit the terminal in most cases unlike Uber/Lyft in which you have to wait especially if it's busy. The only times I have used Uber/Lyft in Vegas have been when I have gone to both the North & South Premium Outlet Malls (mainly because I didn't want to carry the things I bought on the Deuce bus) or visiting family who live in Henderson.

I get the commentary on taking a taxi from the airport, but you guys may want to keep in mind that the Taxi solution is not always the best... In March I hopped in a taxi at Resorts World to go quickly to Fontainebleau because the Uber line was long.. turns out that the Taxicab Authority has been implementing surcharges and during the first week of the NCAA tournament, it was $10 on top of the initial rate charged before even driving away. I noticed the meter was reading $15.99 before we even turned onto the strip. I showed the cab driver that the Uber rate would have been $8.50 for the entire trip which ended up costing me over $20. It's no wonder that the visitors have opted against taxis for a more technology friendly app based service where you know what you are going to pay up front.

Yeah Lyft seems to be cheaper for me most of the time

Lovers & Friends canceling was a good call because, at least where I am in Vegas, we got SLAMED. My patio furniture cleared the brick wall a d went to two of my neighbors yard and each piece weighs at least 30lbs.

I was in Denver but I think people were mad because the wind didn’t come as early as expected. It was nice to land back in Vegas on Sunday with the cool temps even if the flight in was rough.

In the Fallout New Vegas you actually start in Goodsprings so that's funny

People keep coming to Vegas, so Caesars doesn't worry about cutting comps. Until visitation rates plummet, comps will keep getting reduced and resort and parking fees will keep going up. The newer Vegas visitor doesn't care about comps, they just want to party.

Yeah, Fallout New Vegas was a game, one of the best in the series

I wish they came out with a new one already. Sounds like it is still years off

00:45 with set cab fares I have no idea why anyone uses Uber over a taxi to /from casinos

We use Bell car service. They are a wonderful company who meet you at luggage, help with said luggage, and you are on your way to your hotel. Well worth the money and the drivers are wonderful and prompt.🥰

It’s definitely nice to have a driver waiting for you at baggage claim!

Caesars so cheap now.. lounge benefits gone.. comps with free play are nil.. I’ll most end loyalty to Caesar’s after this year

Yes there is a Fallout game set in the Vegas area Fallout New Vegas. and in t he game you actually start in Goodsprings and they have the pioneer saloon and general store in game. you also go to their version of Primm, Nipton, Boulder City, and obviously Vegas and other surrounding areas. From what I have heard Goodsprings has really embraced the notoriety the game has brought their small town and has a little fallout shrine in the saloon along with an Xbox setup with the game so you can tour the town in game as well as the real world. they have even had a fallout themed parade from what I have heard.

As long as visitors OBSESS over location as their most important criteria in where to stay in Vegas (as opposed to, y'know, overall customer service experience)................Caesars will simply continue to feel enabled and justified in furthering their anti-consumer practices much like these latest cuts. It's just that simple. With me though, I'll take an excellent all-around experience on either extreme end of the Strip whether it be Mandalay Bay or Sahara over a mediocre one in a centralized location almost dominated by Caesars resorts ANY day. Wind-related closures have really become a huge problem in Vegas as of late. It's basically a roulette wheel gamble whether an event will see the light of day or not. The inaugural When We Were Young festival had its first day canceled from high winds, there was some golf-related event that wind derailed and didn't even offer refunds, and now we have the much-hyped Lovers & Friends biting the dust.

Yummy, rancid street meat! I've never ben inclined to have a street taco or gyro, and this will definitely confirm that! Why do casinos even have loyalty programs if they show no loyalty to their customers? So cheap and greedy. I've always wanted to check out the Pioneer Saloon.

I don't get why so many people are going with Uber or Lyft at the airport. I was in town back in March and April and I went to the taxi line and got a ride in seconds and only paid $20 for rides to Fontainebleau. I love Lotus of Siam, definitely one of the best Thai restaurants I've been to. Glad to see it's going back to the OG location. As Kyu at Fontainebleau, that's a great deal for tasting menu. I've eaten at their Miami location and wasn't that impressed with it. But I'll try it when I'm back at Fontainebleau.

@@Bluboy30 I can say with 100% certainty you didn’t pay $20 to FB from airport. I drive Uber and my good friend drives a taxi. I assure you that would never happen unless you compensated the driver by some other means (don’t ask, it happens). And for anybody that wants to believe this nonsense, this is the flat rate map. In addition it doesn’t include other fees that will make it even more expensive. taxi.nv.gov/uploadedFiles/taxinvgov/content/Rider_Info/Website-Tier-1-with-Map.pdf

Ride the shuttle over the the rental car facility and get your Uber/Lyft/Taxi there.

Caesar’s has been nickel and diming customer too long. Worst part is they have purchased and ruined gambling legend brands like Horseshoe and Caesar’s Palace just to name a couple. Awful franchise and I’m done giving them my business. Their “empire” attitude equals customers being considered peasants.

@ 5:08 I think that's the Luxor's new promotion....portable jacuzzi, they fill it and deliver it to your room, as you can see it even comes with a beverage package...lol

Hey guys …I’m pretty much sick of Caesar’s rewards . I’m Diamond still but I get so much more with my MGM gold status. I was in Vegas 2 weeks ago and had 4 nights comped in a remodeled salon suite at Bellagio plus $500 free play and $250 resort credit . Never get anything close to that with Caesar’s. I did make it over to the foutainebleau and really liked it . Needs a bit more of a crowd and vibe but the place is beautiful. The bar staff at the center bar near the casino were fantastic. I may not stay there as I prefer center strip but I’ll be back to visit . 😎😎😎

I stayed at horseshoe in March 2024 and I am a diamond plus member and I got the four free drinks every day I was there.

CET already makes it harder Coin-In for Video Poker players to earn TCs, where 8/5 Jacks or Better is $10/1 TC while 9/6 (normal pay) is $25/1 TC. Slots are $5 / 1 TC. Also table games are at the discretion of the pit boss and players are usually rated at the minimum bet they make. I believe Fontaine Bleu will fail as it’s getting expensive keeping the lights on while the resort is only 30% or less occupancy, unless there’s an event in Vegas. And now they are taking away perks for VP players without notice??? Trash

I predict the Beginning of the End of ALL free drinks anytime, anywhere and Everywhere is coming … can you imagine the Bar Bill savings for them !!!! Probably do it by State Mandate so the casinos don’t look ‘bad’ … many other states already do this (charge for drinks).

Comps are just going away I'm done with Vegas, local Indian Casinos is where I will play and stay good comps still.

Line was prob because lovers and friends was cancelled and no one knew what to do or where to go

last time I was there I heard that this was being done on an individual basis for players that for example got 4 bottles of orange juice to go every day - even on days they don't play. - players were told the program is designed to provide you with a drink "while you are playing"

Yes, but everyone gets drinks "while they are playing" regardless of tier status, so this would make the 4X drinks per day no perk at all, which is obviously not what they intended when they extended this offer as a perk for Diamond Plus. I, for one, was getting fewer drinks while playing masked, and so the 4 drinks offer was a nice offset for the drinks I was missing out on while gambling.
