Im off to watch oasis in mancheter and im planning on going to the 365 to sign up!

When at the MGM in OCt we signed to the players club. When I tried to log in at home im not properly registered to look at the account and it tells me to call them. Is it worth the call to america, i mean will they bother offering me any deals based on my low roller play there?

That will be the Player Rewards cards that you will be signing up for in Manchester which is different from the Total Rewards card that you can sign up for at any HET property in Vegas.

Yes, you are right. I think Oneil is a bit confused because I keep harping on about the ICI (London Clubs International) deals you can get.(they are owned by Harrahs, but not the same card) This is the Total Rewards card, the one you get when in Vegas at any of the Harrahs (HET) properties. I have no points at all on my TR but got a good deal to stay at Flamingo

In addition to mentioning the sign up for the LCI card in Manchester, I think Oneil may be talking about the MGM group players club card....the one he's asking if its worth calling the US about as he's not properly registered to use the online system...whether it's worth a call or not I honestly don't know - but at £0.005 per minute it may be worth a try.

Im glad the fuel is so low! Hope it stays like that until April and now hope the $ rises a bit against the pound as I am still holiding out and not buying currency!!!

Guys, any tips for booking flights with Southwest? Just do it through their website and pay in dollars presumably? Nothing special to do or nowt? Need an internal flight from LAX to SFO whilst over there, coming in at about £100 for two of us on a single, not to bad!

any other tips to try, tried kayak but no flights at the right time!

Gas has been raising steadily lately, uncertainty with the Russians. Yes you just book through SW site paying in dollars using of course Your nationwide or Post Office CC
Mystery adventures usually answer their emails, but phoning them would be OK, you will need to give them your CC number to reserve your spot.
I have had a cunning plan. I think I will email them with a link to this forum and ask if we can get some kind of discount going. When I mentioned to Max that we found out about them on here, he said he had heard about us before. he even said that someone from Scotland had set up his own little adventure thing in Edinburgh

Just had a look at Virgin America thier flights are coming out pretty good as well, and are a FAR better operation than anything else we have used in the U.S.

Problem with virgin, is it gets in to SFO at 3:35pm and our flight to Heathrow from SFO is at 4:55pm and it leaves it a bit tight to get checked back in (although will do online checking 24hrs before)

The southwest one gets in at 3pm which feels safer..

Bit odd as they always came back to me almost straight away...sure you're using the right address? Mystery@MysteryAventuresLasVegas.com ?
