A growing number of people are weighing their options for loyalty points as notable casinos like Bellagio and Aria stop offering complimentary rooms. Recent logs reveal some members with large points balances wondering how best to use them.
Many users are logging back into their loyalty programs after extended absences, finding mixed options for spending points. With 500,000 points in hand, one member expressed confusion over the recent removal of free room nights.
Recent comments highlight concerns about diminishing value in loyalty rewards:
"The room comps are still probably the most value youโre going to get with the points," remarked one user.
Another noted success in booking a free stay at MGM Grand for just 100,000 points, saying, "I logged on Wednesday night and got a free Tuesday night stay."
Some people lament the overall reduction in attractive rewards, with one stating, "Not much good is left lol."
While traditional room comps seem scarce, other options remain:
Dining discounts like $20 off a $40 purchase.
Free cocktails at Aria.
Unique experiences like the Shark Reef and Tournament of Kings are still attractive.
Match plays at Park MGM remain a popular choice among frequent visitors.
"Now that they removed the My Konami freeplays, there isnโt a ton left," a user shared, reflecting a sentiment felt by many.
With uncertainty looming over loyalty programs, many wonder if rewards will improve or deteriorate further. "Iโll check again in a few years lol," one user commented, echoing a common feeling of resignation.
