    You can ask.

    You can get a new card from any casino with an M life desk by showing ID, express comps dont stay on your account for ever, i think they vanish after 12 months of inactivity, so it will depend when you last went to Vegas, if less than 12 months ago you may get a nice surprise

    you can log in to Mlife and see, surprised you havent checked on there as you may have some comp nights

    best to use your express comps on the last day of your visit,

    hi
    and thanks again for some more feedback.kept my card from 2014 for our trip last year ,though my brother lost him and was easy to get another 1.

    thanks for the info on express comps, i did think something stayed on your Mlife account for a good while, and i think we ll scrap in with the 12month period, since we were in vegas i think 7th to 17th last year

    I have checked the Mlife offers,Just when we booked up way back in september( ye long time ago now) i had a look and found nothing for our trip, we were looking for june or july this year so we booked up with a friend of the families thinking if we paid off the holiday by november whatever we save til june is spending money.
    since then i ve checked Mlife offers and well have had comped nights, but getting money for our next trip will be difficult

    thanks again for your responses to my questions !!:T

    As others said, u goto the mlife desk to get a new card, showing your ID, your name and existing Mlife number (if they ask for it that is)....


    If your logged into your Mlife account already, u will see how much Express Comp's u have at the top of the screen......


    I managed to wangle another $100 out of the Luxor last night..
    I rang the Mlife dept for Luxor, said I got an offer for 3 nights suite + $150 credit.
    Told them my current booking is 3 nights tower suite + $50 credit....
    Asked if she can work some magic for me, and then wham, 10 seconds later now got $150 credit and same tower suite! :D:D
    Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!!

    So my final recap is:
    3 Nights Comp Mirage + $100 credit
    3 Nights Comp Cosmo + $100 credit
    2 Nights Comp Suite Monte Carlo + $250 credit
    3 Nights Comp Luxor (wifey mlife) + $50 credit
    3 Nights Comp Suite Luxor + $150 credit


    All I need now is some great luck, and to hit a 3-of-a-kind or Straight-Flush in 3card Poker at the beginning of the holiday and i'll be one super happy chappy! :D:D and to hit good on that dam wheel of fortune (oldskool machine)...

    MGM Group - Parking.....
    I read in brief somewhere, that its possible the parking charges for MGM Group hotels wont come into play until end of June ? Anyone else heard that ?

    thanks for the feedback, getting a new Mlife card should be easy enough, gotta get it cos i have to redeem my Myvegas rewards:D

    As for the express comp's yep i noticed that this morning i think it was like $37 or something , im sure my brother will have pretty much the same or more as he gambled more than i have done though,

    As for luck, thats all we ever need esp in vegas after all!

    Are there any websites or tricks to getting discounted airport lounge access? Specifically Edmonton in Canada as we have a 4h 46m layover on our way to Vegas.

    Many thanks
