Thats really not that bad of a deal for those who fly private. If your going through NetJets or Marquis your roughly going to pay $8000 for 2 hours flight time for a small plane. Even if your catching a ride on a deadhead then it still going to be $4-6K each way. This is giving you flexibility and if your coming from the east coast it will be an even greater value. I know orivate is not something considered much on these forums but, considering the extras its a great package for that niche market.

I'd rather rough it in coach, take a taxi and take my chances with all the leftover money at the tables. Now if Cher was 40 years younger with the same physique and accompanied the package....

one way max is ~4.5 hours and ~2500 miles so i presume they would just do a stop with a smaller jet. no clue what all they own.
(6 jets in early 2007 - http://findarticles.com/p/articles/m.../ai_n20165149/)

That's a fantastic deal if you fly private. 9 hours in a small jet is easily $20-25K. The room, tickets and meals are gravy.
But again, only if you're already shelling out the $ for a private jet. I'd be right there next to kingalien with $18K or so at the craps table!

they claim $40K/nt 
(reminiscent of palms fantasy tower)
they claimed the 6BR penthouse was not bookable as well
IIRC MikeE recently said they sometimes offer the 4BR penthouse really cheap as an upgrade at checkin
it seems to me that the 3 new villas and the 6BR are most likely negotiable as usual
(until the 6BR was launched they always said theyll book anything)
(wynncore is the only one to be really clear on not booking 6>19 of their accommodations)
caesars DOES have a vegas first though - the bacchus pool is invite-only

quite a few 
I do recall some tax issues with the purchase/transfer of jets in the past year.
They also have a rewards credit rate (IIRC: 450,000 RCs per hour) if you desire to use your banked points to book a Harrah's jet to a casino.
Yep, basically my impression when I saw this deal a week or two ago.
