myVegas: FAQ

When do rewards refresh?

See my post about spending rewards.

When are room calendars updated?

Room calendars have historically been released less than a month before the current room calendars expire.

Can you post the current room calendars?

See this link.

Can two people get rooms and go for a longer stay?

Yes, as long as there is availability. You can ask to stay in the same room at check-in. You may have to go to the check-in desk twice.

How many myVegas freeplays can you redeem per paid stay?

Just one. It used to be multiple but they changed it in 2023. You can still redeem mykonami freeplays, even without staying.

What counts as a paid room for the $100 myVegas freeplay?

Any stay where you checked-in and have 3 or more paid nights in the stay. You can have comped days but there must be 3 or more paid nights. Third party bookings are eligible. Rates that are only resort fees or room upgrades are not.

An award I wanted disappeared, what happened?

Either the partnership ended, the reward is no longer being offered, or the reward is being refreshed. Every couple months, many rewards (rooms, freeplay, etc) disappear and a new batch reappears after a couple days.

Should I spend money on the game?

Spending money opens up a 4th, 5th or 6th reward slot. The 4th slot opens around $100, 5th slot around $300, 6th slot around $700. Spending money on some games may allow you to earn LP faster, or temporarily remove some loyalty caps. It also raises your myVIP level, which makes you eligible for some tournaments and, if you’re high enough, better customer service and a host.

myVegas: Booking NCL Cruises

myVegas is currently offering an reward for $1000 off cruises. Two people can buy a certificate each and get $2000 off their cruise fare. Or a single certificate can take $1000 off. You can stack this with CruiseFirst on cruises 7 days or longer, the free at sea offers, Amex offers, and some personalized cruise offers.

They don’t pull any tricks with the base price of the fare. The price is the same price that you can quote on their website. It is also valid on any type of stateroom.

Sample Itinerary

Sample itinerary found directly on their website. The $1000 per person discount applies off just the Stateroom portion of the fare (in this case, $1998), so your total fare would be $512.64. Not included are gratuities at $20 per person per day.

The $1000 off per person only covers the cost of the stateroom and does not cover taxes, gratuities, or excursions. The total out of pocket cost, not including airfare to the port, would be $512 + gratuities ($20/day per person) for a total of $952.

You can also stack this with a Cruisefirst certificate ($250 for $500 credit), making it $702 for two people. This also stacks with amex offers if it is available at the time.

This also stacks with some personal offers that may be on your NCL account. For example, a 25% discount due to changed itinerary would be stacklable but the dollar off from the myVegas applies first and you get a discount on the remaining fare.

How to purchase the reward

The $1000 off reward currently costs 300,000 loyalty points on myVegas. If you’re starting off today, it is possible to get this number of loyalty points in as few as 4 days, depending on how much time you want to invest in the apps.

If the reward is sold out, there is a good chance it will be available at the standard reset time.
