Honey do Recomended calling about checking in early on Thurs. So I did and the not so friendly little man on the phone told me if they have rooms ready before three then they will make them available. (I think he may have talked to a few concerned PH's today) You can leave your bags at the bell desk. my thinking ( and I am often wrong ) is that the Flamingo is Vegas, they are used to alot of people so they will get us taken care as best they can. I hope I am right and we have a little time to party before the show!!!!

So my plan is to be ready to party, stash my bags somewhere wait in line for my tickets while Mrs. Stick brings me a drink(s), find BN, and then have the time of my life!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WoooooooooooooooHooooooooooooooo

And, as trusting as we would all like to be, we need to pack so that we have somethings we may need in case the BAGS "get a free air line trip" somewhere else.

How are they with carry-on bags these days?

I also called today and got the same answer. No promises on an early check in, but it's a possibility.

I am riding a small plane from a small airport- they have one flight and its this one, so probably not a big deal for me however, I don't think they let you carry on much, they may have you put your own bag on the plane. If I lose it all oh well, its Vegas!!! LOL

Baggage.... Clothes what clothes...I've got my flip flops and a bottle of Vanilla Rum.....ummm. No cell phone but I'll sure be hanging in with the BN group. I'll be the one crawling!

Hi everyone!

Every time I've ever called a hotel in Vegas that's the response I've gotten (and this will be my first Vegas Buffett show). And they were never very nice about it. The last time it happened they very nicely upgraded my room once I got there, and because I took a smoking room the upgrade was free- but this was at the Alladin, I don't know how Caesar's handles anything.

FYI - Rumor has it that if you don't pick up your tickets at the Flamingo by 2pm tomorrow, you forfeit them.

Well, I might not make that so I hope it is just a rumor.

OK , here is the scoop- CRC I love ya but don't scare the s*** out of me like that. If you booked online for the package then your tickets are garunteed! You check in first then go to the connection club to get your players card and your tickets! it does not matter if it is after two they will have your tickets!

I was told differently today freddy. That doesn't mean the lady behind the connection club desk working was accurate. I did however here it from her mouth. Hopefully it isn't a problem

Well the last thing they want is very unhappy parrotheads that don't get to see Jimmy that paid top dollar for rooms just because the flight didnt get in time to get their 3 hours before the show. They didn't let us reserve We, thu, fri for the the package so they really set us up for not being their too early on Thur. ( woulda done that ) I have been assured all along that they will save my ticket for me and I have to believe them!

Now, if you won tickets, or got them by other means than an internet Jimmy Buffett special registraiton then you might get them after 2pm.
