    We will be in Vegas for 7 days in August, a Friday through a Friday. Is it possible to use a comp with FP day 1-3 at MGM, then stay days 4-5 at Ceasars and then come back to MGM or go to Bellagio days 5-7 to get another comp with FP?

    Anyone done this?
    Thanks so much!

    Sounds like you'll only be away from an MGM property for 2 days or 48 hours. I don't think they will allow it.

    SH0CK is right, if it's only two days in between, no. If you put 3 days in between, and they are DIFFERENT offers (e.g. a corporate offer and a direct offer), we do this all the time and have always been able to redeem FP and RC at both places.

    The key is "different offers", if you book the same corporate offer at different properties, then no. (At least not on FP "gaming offers can only be redeemed once". Not sure on RC on the same offer.)

    As always with MLIFE, it can always change, but we have always done this and love it. I think it might call for a one day extension to your trip, with an extra day at CET. ;)

    Also, make SURE to check the rate calender at CET, not just your offers. Often you'll have free nights on the calendar that they don't advertise...though possibly not at Caesars. Caesars, Cromwell and NOBU areally tigher on this, but PH and Paris and others are really generous on this...

    PS Mirage is the ONE MLIFE hotel we've found that requires 4 nights in between...something about not counting checkout day. But for the rest? You should be golden, as long as they haven't changed anything since our last trip 5 months ago...

    MAYBE

    If the 2nd stay is only for a room, and you have decent play, they might do it. Call and ask.

    Last poster was right about extending CET stay.

    Thanks guys! I'll try extending Ceasars by one more night so it will be a full 3 days. If it works it would be completely worth it, I will report back on what happens :)

    What if it is one promotion you used (paid room/resort credit) and then you check out and go to another hotel and then come back a few days later using a different promotion (paid room/resort credit) at an MLife property? Can you do that?

    @Multifarious5 already said above "yes" if they are indeed different offers.
    If they are actually the same offer for different casinos (with different codes), then no.

    Does the 72 hour window start right from when you check out?

    I think @Bunnypanda was talking about mLife offers, not MyVegas?

    I booked on a comp offer at Luxor for my upcoming trip. 3 night offer starting Thursday, August 3 and checking out Sunday, August 6. I thought if I stayed Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday night somewhere else I could book one of the other offers on Wednesday night. I was booking online, and the system wouldn't let me book the Excalibur comp offer starting Wednesday night, but it would accept it for Thursday night.

    That's good to know. What I'm planning to do is stay at Bellagio just one night because I have a 500 FP offer, then stay at planet the next 3 and MGM the last 3 so I can get another FP offer

    I'm wondering if they will still give you the freeplay because of 1) booking the other offer 2) only staying one night

    I was apprehensive about that too but I called and both hosts I talked to said it was okay. Fingers crossed...
