PS- is it two of the same events per year? Or lifetime?
I believe the general limit on two moments package is per the same event (i.e., same exact game on the same date or same exact concert, etc). As an aside, sometimes the limit is actually 1 package per event. That screwed me up when I bid for two packages to an concert event billed as a "Family Day," this summer, but was limited to only one package with two tickets. Guess the event was only for small families.

Considering using 55k on 10/31 at MSG Anyone know the suite location (or number) and whether the seats are in the box or if you out in the crowd like the points guy reports. Trying to decide if the view will be favorable. Thank you.

joshua 362-
the seats are not in the suite

they are a 20 second walk from the suite - the suite is an underground bunker- the actual seats look just like normal seats and are located in the front rows of section 116 on the seating chart

By now I should realize nothing is constant in the mileage game. Seems the trend is SPG Moments requiring more points for buy it now redemptions compared to the past.

Caesars packages have doubled in price for Britney Spears (now 20,000 points) and increased 5,000 points for Penn & Teller and Jersey Boys as well. Seems the suite packages have gone up as well for MSG.

The Cirque packages have come down in price though.

I've done a lot of searching, so thanks for this. In a nutshell, I will have regular seats, but the suite itself is just a short walk away so that I can grab a snack or drink pretty much whenever?

Do you tip the bartenders inside the suite?

Anything else to know? This is my first time going to an event like this.

Seats that we got for Britney were very, very good. $700 face value for the pair, so not surprising the doubled the price. Penn and Teller seats were literally front row, but you could get $50/60 seats on the second level.

But on the positive side, Kings suite tickets for this year were cut from 25K to 15K, including the game against the Hawks near Thanksgiving. Couldn't pass that up. They will have to discount next years tickets. Games vs the Coyotes and the Stars for 45K, when they can't get 25K for the Hawks, Canucks, and Penguins? HA!
