HOSTS in casinos don't give you any freebies without looking at your gambling history period, they are not really going to work with you, honor your request, give you nice comped suites with you only put in $1000 in slots per trip not even in Excalibur. If you read some of those posts in various Vegas groups in FB, people are talking about why their comps dropped significantly, and their hosts warned them they have to put in same amount if not more than their last trip. Some of their hosts are not responsive to their requests, why is it no hosts approach them ? It is not about good hosts or bad hosts but all about your coins in Besides, have you noticed no one really honest to talk about exactly what had they put in slots in their trips ?

Not to mention, if you reread the posts about some of these FTers that were given Noir as globalist were platinum to begin with, so they do have a gambling history to begin with

500 people granted Noir is a lot, especially when it’s not even in the program terms at all meaning in reality 0 could’ve been offered.

As for coin in since 2018 I’ve put about 100k in with MGM in Vegas never offered or considered for Noir. Not even a complimentary bump to Platinum had to earn it myself.

I would further argue that many more people got Noir from the Hyatt/MGM relationship than people who get automatic Globalist status from the AA/Hyatt membership even though a direct status match is offered per the program terms and is publicly available (AA ConciergeKey level members can status match to Hyatt Globalist status).

I would definitely argue that Noir is true Elite as there are many hard benefits such as guaranteed free limo service, front of the line at any MGM restaurant, dedicated VIP host, suite upgrades and much more.
