Planet Aladdin/Hollywood deal question

FatWallet has a promo deal posted today for Aladdin, but as I%26#39;ve seen before, the caveat listed in the fine print was:

';This offer is non-transferable and is therefore valid only for the Club Aladdin Member listed on this account';

I%26#39;ve read in past TA postings about folks who have made reservations using these codes with mixed results. How likely is there to be an issue on check-in? My reservation went through and I got a confirmation number without any reference to my Club Aladdin card.

Anyone with experience that can share their opinions?

Planet Aladdin/Hollywood deal question

When I stayed there in November I booked under one of those specials without being a member, and I had no problems at check-in. Just make sure you get a player%26#39;s club card before you check-in in the casino. Just act like you%26#39;ve been there before.

Planet Aladdin/Hollywood deal question

I just saw that promo as well. I%26#39;m already booked for February under a previous players club only code I recieved via snail mail, but this offer is cheaper. I%26#39;m going to call tonight and ask them to adjust my rate based on the new promo code. I%26#39;ll let you know if I have any problems. Saves $40 over al already smoking rate!

Also, I should note that my original booking offer was a phone offer only and they required my players club to book.

Thanks. Look forward to hearing from you.

I%26#39;m going Apr 10-14. We used a different deal at The Flamingo to get our stay down to $320 plus tax.

This new Aladdin offer is for $276 plus tax, so obviously I%26#39;m interested in it.

lone_palm, I called and they adjusted my existing reservation with no problem. DH had a reservation as well (we made for friends withoout a card) and was able to change it with no problems. I think as long as you book online and get a card upon arrival you should be fine! They didn%26#39;t do anything to confirm that the offer was actually sent to us.

Will post a report when I return at the end of Feb. :)

the fine print on the deal says its for the member who it was sent to but I%26#39;ve never been asked for one there. They also have a very public webpage showing the general rates on the calendar. I agree that I would get a card before check in just in case they ask. But seeing as they don%26#39;t ask for your card number on the reservation it should be no problem. Here%26#39;s the link to the page if anyone is interested....

Thanks LauraSue,

Good news, sounds like you are all set. Enjoy your trip. I%26#39;ll keep a look out for you when you get back to see how everything was (and keep my reservation at Flamingo active for the time being just in case....)

No problem! Yes, it%26#39;s always good to have a backup, just in case! Hopefully I%26#39;ll have good things to report when I return. My only hope is that they fix the whole casino entrance thing by then. :) If not, well, then I guess that means the Aladdin casino will be very uncrowded.

Thanks eagle1584 for the link. I did book with the Aladdin/Planet Hollywood for a great rate. I went last year in June with a rate of $49 per night and I had no problems; however they hadn%26#39;t started putting in the fine print at that time. I do have a players card though. I just hope it%26#39;s not based on your play. I%26#39;m going to call again before I leave to verify my rate and maybe ask a few questions, very few. I had been waiting for a great rate and now I can officially say I am booked for May.

laurasue13, looking forward to your post and review of using the rate and on the casino. etc.
