I have done it and booked the Carriage House for Feb 20th to Feb 27th 2010. Now for the f!lights. Could anyone find me a good deal, flying from the North West. I have looked at flights and there seems to be difference in the length of flights. There don't seem to be many direct flights although I know Thomas Cook do go direct. Never been to Las Vegas, so any hints and tips most grateful as need to fill in the 6 days with as much as possible. I don't gamble but the other half does so got a feeling I will be spending some time shopping on my own.

You'll have more trouble getting around to everything you want to do in 6 days than running out of things, I think. If you haven't already, check out the first several posts on this thread for some of the highlights...there are loads of lists of 'must do' things online - just really depends on what appeals to you.

No point emailing them IMO, even if you could find an email address. These hotels deal with thousands of guests a day and I don't think they would have a system of keeping track of email requests. It's not like emailing a Spanish hotel with less than a hundred rooms.

I would wait till check in and then ask for the bookings to be linked. You should be able to get the resort credits at check in.

Thanks for the advice! I will let you know how I get on & give a TR upon my return!!

No great shakes that. At least the time is later than origional, if it had been earlier might have found some getting caught out.
I often wonder why this is done so often. On one trip last year with United we had our times changed no less than 5 times, and in all it only moved a total of 15 minutes either way

No great shakes if you live in the south and fly direct from Heathrow. However for the rest of us who have connecting flights, any time change is important as it has a knock on effect.

What would happen if they changed it dramatically? I'm flying down from Scotland. All booked through BA.
