Heading back to LV today from SF (had an amazing time here).
Room here has a connecting door, but next door was empty for the first 3 nights so it was peaceful. Last 2 nights we have had to listen to an old couple argue about everything.

Back in LV. Flight was non-eventful. 1 bedroom suite in Tower 3 at MGM Signature - I absolutely love these rooms. $50 resort credit as part of the package, so going to have MGM buffet this evening.

Pool day planned for tomorrow, but chance of some pm rain.

Just for info. Our flight here on Thomas Cook was on a (I think) refurbished plane.

IFE was on demand, and worked perfectly. Only a few films to choose from, but £4 to upgrade opened up many more films and TV shows.

Seating was 2-4-2, perfect for us as a couple.

Seldom Seen Kid you are right the flight out was on a refurbished plane the one they are using now is leased plane with a 2-3-2 configuration and is like from the stone-age or it was when we flew home on sunday

Cheers for the info boffin2001. Trying to not think about flying home at the minute, but fingers crossed we are on a similar plane to what we flew out on.

Had a steady day by the pool today, and then Bellagio buffet this evening (myvegas reward).

Free Show tickets deal with MGM Resorts right now. The free ticket offer worked with an existing reservation. Minimum stay 2 nights.

Choose from:

Zarkana by Cirque at Aria
KA by Cirque at MGM Grand
LOVE by Cirque at Mirage
Zumanity by Cirque at NYNY
Criss Angel Believe at Luxor
Blue Man Group at Monte Carlo
Jabbawockeez at Luxor
Terry Fator at Mirage
Tournament of Kings at Excalibur

Links up at www.mycheapvegas.com, use username: guest pw: guest to login.

click on the '2 free show tickets' offer and under the relevant deal there is a link that says 'Click here to book your show tickets after making your reservation'

The link takes you to the following site: http://www.mgmresorts.com/entp/inter...x?kbid=3930103, I don't know if it works by going directly to the link instead of going through all the steps above, it probably does.

Then you put your reservation number in the box and click 'Book now'. The list of options are shown on the next page.

Make sure your room reservation is for 2 people. Mine accidentally was for one and I only got one ticket so I had to call Mirage box office and they changed it to two people.

mine not working, fails right at the end! (where it reserves tickets)
I got a few booking refs for 3 lots of hotels, and all fail when you get to the last process to reserve the tickets....


I take half of that statement back! (explain in a mo)

Thank you for this. Now we just have to decide which show to go to.

Good Post Chyna!!!!!!! I know the guy that promotes that site (Cheong)..

Anyway, for our comp'd bookings, I got a few reservation numbers, mainly my name but 2 reservations in her name (1 res for a 2 night myvegas stay + 1 res for a 2 night luxor stay)...
If you recall, 10 of our 11 nights are comp'd !

Anyway, doing the above link, when I follow the process, select tickets and try and reserve, when booking with my name and my email address, it fails each time
However, when I book using the wifes name and her email address, it books OK!!!!
So we got:
Beatles Love
Jabbawockz
Blueman Group
Blueman Group (accidently booked this and jabbawockz same time, so booked 2 lots of tickets instead! )

So in theory, as long as it works, we should be able to goto the box office and pickup the tickets for $20 ($10 each booking fee)
