KJC,

That's the one downside of the Aladdin... not being part of Parkplace, MGM or Harrah's group of properties. Guess I'll be getting reactivated with one or more of them before long. From your comments, it would appear that Harrah's and Parkplace must have merged. I used to stay at Parkplace properties (Paris/Bally's/Flamingo/Caesars etc.) until a substitute rep wouldn't give me the same passline card they gave me on every visit. That was almost 4 years ago, so maybe it's time to get over it. <g>

>>We stayed at the Aladdin only once, and that one time was before the big renovation and added mall.

The old Aladdin was demolished. I never stayed there. The current one was built in 2000 from the dirt up. Planet Hollywood and Starwood are buying it for about 50% of what it cost London Club to build, and they are spending around $90 million to re-theme it. Not a bad deal for them.
