Regarding calling for better tickets...have tried everything to get through to Caesars box office to see about choosing seats more to our liking for Elton John...every number I've found or been given ends up throwing me back to Ticketmaster's automated system that just gives me the exact same options as online.

Anyone have any thoughts?

I've tried the main Caesars number...and the box office number 877-235-4634

What about 888-435-8665, as on the link below:

Alternatively, what about being cheeky and contacting reception ?

That's the first one I tried and puts you through to Ticketmaster I'm afraid...I did call the main Caesars number and asked for the box office number - the first one she gave me I asked if it was Ticketmaster and she said it was, but gave me the regular BO number...which also put me through to TM.

I bought a ticket for Eltons show in person from Caesars box office a couple of weeks back, it was still from Ticketmaster, it must go through their booking system.

Seen the red piano show a couple of times, really good...he is finishing there in April and going touring with Billy Joel for next 2 years. He said he wasnt sure who was going to be filling his spot there, but hoped Celine would be coming back to her "home"..

After digging a little deeper, i think a package from Expedia is better.

Finding the Luxor at a decent price for 7 nights was OK but flight is about 300+.

I would say a flight would cost between 350 - 400, which means you ideally want 7 nights for a about £200.

On Expedia I found flight + 7 nights in Planet Hollywood for about £580.00

The reviews on PH look pretty good!
