Will be down there this weekend, staying at Aria. Got a few questions for you guys,

Where can I find discount on the "O" show??

Read a little bit about the 24 hours buffet pass, too lazy to search it up again. If me and my gf decides to only goto 2 buffets, one for dinner (At Caesar) and one for bfast (At Bellagio possibly), will we be better off without the pass?

Thanks!

You can get somewhat of a discount for O at mycheapvegas.com
This show has a lot of hype so it is not as heavily discounted as the other shows.

Bellagio isn't part of the 24hr buffet program. Bellagio is part of Mlife, and they have the MyVegasSlots on FB games, so you can win discounts there. The 24hr buffet is with Total Rewards, so you'll have to see which hotels are involved.

We spent all our MyVegasSlot rewards on 2-1 buffets so the 24hr buffet wasn't worth it for us.

yeah that's the best discount for O so far.

Any MUST GOTO restaurants for fine dining? Or any type of cuisines.

Joel Robuchon is a MUST if you want to fine dine and actually have one of the best meal you will have in your life, I always do both L'talier and Joel Robuchon everytime I went to Vegas (last week)

Always a special meal on its own.

What I always do is order the 16 course meal and order 1 or 2 little things on the side to share with the girlfriend for Joel Robuchon

for L'talier I always do the same thing, the set menu which is 10 courses or something, and add a Foie Gras stuffed quail, the ham from spain (lost the name right now, its cured meat and served on a fresh tomato baguette)

This time I also added the truffle pasta.... without knowing the price (trust me it hurts) was absolutely fucking amazing. 4GRAMS of white truffle, on a pasta with Parmesan foam and an egg yolk... that pasta was $200 which I knew after the bill came... which costed MORE than the set menu alone....

$200 for the course meal, and an extra $100 for spare food to company 2 people.

$100 bucks on wine, they have wines from $30 - $$$$$$ if I recall correctly.

But if you don't do course meal, share a few plates will be around $200 or so which is pretty fair plus however much wine you would like

Trust me L'talier and Joel Robuchon are both absolutely amazing!

Isn't it like $160 for the course meal at L'talier? So you and your friend share one course meal and add an extra $100 of food?

Carry on is still $30. $10 more and I have room to bring a small hooker home.

Easily.

You're going to Vegas to party, not a 30 day backpacking trip.

Allegiant charges for carry on?! Fuck that

going dec16-19

I booked for the first time using my visa card concierge for the hotel.

Staying at Vdara with these perks:

- The best available rate (25% off) $74/night
- Automatic room upgrade upon arrival, when available
- $20 Daily breakfast credit per person (up to two persons per room)
- 3pm check-out
- VIP guest status
- One $25 food or beverage credit per stay
- Free in-room Internet

Gonna check it out and let y'all know. I'm wondering if its anything different than just booking regular through travel sites and what not. The rate seemed pretty good and works out to about $300 and change after taxes and fees.

For the flight I just redeemed my points flying out of yvr.

Fuck Allegiant.

I'd rather ride my bike then fly with them.

I'll gladly pay a bit more to fly Alaska out of Bellingham
