Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ's)
What is “Being Rated”? It
means the guest has used a player car d
while they played and their play has been recorded by the casino. “Ratings” are
used for casino comps like food, beverages and show tickets. It is also
evaluated for future offers like complimentary rooms and airfare.
What are Complimentaries (comps)? Casino
comps are rewards offered to casino customers for their gaming activity at the
table and slot machines.
How Are Comps Figured? The Pit supervisors
monitor the games you play, average bets, length of time and win/loss. For slot
players, the number and denomination of coins and number of pulls are tracked by
the machine. From this information the casino uses a formula to determine a
“Theoretical Win” and your comp worth.
What is the Term “Theoretical Win?” Based on
your average bet or “coin in” and the amount of time you play, the computer
calculates a formula of what the casino could theoretically win from you. This
is a standard procedure for calculating a casino patron’s “worth”.
What is a Qualified Player? Qualified
Players receive complimentaries (comps) based upon their level of play. It
should be noted that the levels of play required may change based on
destination. For example, Atlantic City requires 4-5 hours per day at either a
$1.00 Slot machine with maximum coin in or $75.00 min bet at the tables to
qualify for one complimentary seat on the aircraft and a room.
How Do I Become a Qualified Player?
Complimentary levels are set by the casino. We give everyone a slot &
table game rating card upon arrival. It is the customer’s responsibility to use
the card while playing. Should you play multiple slot machines or lose your card
we ask that you go over to the Total Rewards Center and have the appropriate
amount of cards made up for you to use.
What Type of I.D. Do I Need for Check In
at the Airport? Our check in period begins 1 1/2 hours prior to
flight time and lasts a half hour. A government issued picture I.D. is required
from every passenger in order to fly. Please note that since this is FAA
regulation, no one will be allowed to fly without proper I.D.
What Items Can’t I Bring in My Carry-On
Bags? NO WEAPONS of any type will be allowed. No Knives, scissors,
sharp cutting implements or lighters will be allowed on passengers or in your
carry-on baggage. FAA approved oxygen tanks are permitted. Security
personnel will confiscate any items they deem not permissible on the aircraft.
By Order of the Transportation Security
Administration – Updated September 26, 2006
The following pertains to carry on bags only. You may now carry through security
checkpoints travel-size toiletries (3 ounces or less) that fit comfortably in
ONE, QUART-SIZE, clear plastic, zip-top bag. At the checkpoint you will be asked
to remove the zip-top bag of liquids and place it in a bin or on the conveyor
belt. X-raying separately will allow TSA to more easily examine the declared
items. Larger amounts of prescription liquid medications, baby formula and
diabetic glucose treatments must be declared at the checkpoint for additional
screening. After clearing security, travelers can now bring beverages and other
items purchased in the secure boarding area on-board aircraft.
Why Does it Cost More for a Single Rate? Our
program is subsidized by the casino. Without their support package prices would
be substantially more. Actual costs on most of our trips are far more than the
package price. Pricing is determined based on actual costs and having two people
in one room.
Why Do I Need a Credit Card to Check
into the Hotel? Posting a credit card is standard in the hotel
business. It’s made to protect them from theft and damages. Most casinos do not
have exceptions.
