Flying in for another event on the 11th-out the 14th.
Statying at Planet Hollywood(on a fantastic rate thanks to some great FT'ers)
Planet H'wood is going to be FT central it looks like.
Heading in on 1/13 for the night, if SBY doesnt work Ill be in town from 11pm gtill 7am.

Yep grabed that great $79 rate at the PH, but from the looks of things I doubt anything decent roomwise will be left over. Was goona stay at the BW by the airport for $45 ai, but for $86 and 2x stay credit and 1k-2k-3k bonus pts PH it is.

Will be in RDU on 1/14 and back to PH for 1/15 , then back to NY on 1/16. Repeat it all again 1/27-1/29. 1/27 $89 rate after that no more bonuses or cheap rates so no 2nd night back in LAS after RDU.

Guess with a match play of $25 for the tables and $10 with 20 in on the slots Ill stop by the casino before grabbing a shower and some ZZs. Will be in town for 24 1/15-1/16 but I land at 11pm.

If you are really early(before 8 am)you should be fine.
Mid day-when I arrive-will be a mess,and it might be a mess all weekend long

Hmm, I'm in MSP waiting for a flight to LAS right now. I thought CES was finishing up, is this weekend gonna be busy? I figured it would be slow, given my 3 comped nights.

Sitting at LAS right now...at 4 PM today, there was zero wait for security into the D gates. CES seems to have been somewhat less of a deal this year.

Certainly there were no "cool" new technologies or show-stoppers this year.

you were right. Used F security line and had no problems at the D gates. Flights were packed and requests for volunteers frequent.
