Link don"t work on Firefox either - hangs as per Paulie.

Rang em and they had no record of the reservation, so I booked it over the phone, painless......


Cheers Rich

EDIT
Just got the email confirmation of the phone booking


hmmm the Harrahs rate is the same as if I booked with a TR discount, and I"m inclined to stay at Ballys anyway - with a couple of nights at Caesars to finish. And the Caesars rate is cheaper.

I don"t suppose they gave any indication of whether the online bit will get fixed?

I could book my couple of nights at Caesars with this - but I don"t really want to pay for an American phone call


PMSL


:"( I lost £1.44 worth of equity by having to phone them - I think this has sent me into shock as I am no longer looking out for discount codes I can use in conjunction with the TR discount.

So I now have Bally"s booked from 15th-22nd and Caesars booked from 22nd-24th :)

Aide Memoire - To Do List

































Buy dollarscloser to the time...
Book a train to Gatwick and back for 14th and 24thCan only book 12 weeks in advance...
Book time off workMD already knows I"m going so just need to make it official some time...
Book Gatwick Hilton for night before flight going outNeed 364 Hilton Honors points to get a free night - so book when I get them...
Buy travel insuranceWhen I get round to it, possibly soon-ish...
Book flight there and back;DBOOKED
Reserve Bally"s for 15th-22nd;DRESERVED
Reserve Caesars for 22nd-24th;DRESERVED


Right ... think that"s everything

Jon,

If you have a Virgin Flying Club a/c check out the miles offer for buying dollars at Gatwick at the Amex desk.

I haven"t - but for those who might, is it really that good?

Isn"t buying dollars at the airport one of the worst places in general?
