    Does anyone have experience using casino junkets?

    Hi, I'm just wondering if anyone has any experience using casino junkets and what benefits they offer. I have a vague idea, but am interested in hearing more first hand experience especially about the actual process and also rebates. How do you contact them? What is the process like? Was it safe? Do you negotiate?

    Sure, but I don't know if the proper term is junket for charter casino trips. Anyway, I have flown charter flights to Wendover from the Midwest many times. See this link. https://wendoverfun.com/flights/ Hotel is included in price. Most of my flights have been free since.

    Also took charter flight to Laughlin out of the Midwest on Sun Country Airlines. Hotel was included in price. See link.

    They are real good deals if you live close to a flight city.

    Looks like you can't receive PMs.
    Listen to the GWAE podcasts with BJ Traveller to get a good idea of what's possible.
    Reach out to him with specific questions. He's done a ton of these and may be willing to share.
    If you can't get a hold of him and if someone I know can vouch for you, then I can make the introductions.

    A long, long time ago I went on some junkets organized by an independent contractor that involved air travel. A smallish private plane that would take a couple dozen or so passengers. Often it was day trip junket that didn't involve hotel stay. If you wanted a room for the partial day you were there it was arranged. Usually longer stays were smaller junkets that just involved our party and had a plane that seated fewer than 10 people. It was a long time ago so I am not sure if I could remember the details they would still be helpful. I was not the main player in my party so I didn't need to know much about the details anyway. As for safety we almost crashed once but I am not sure if that isn't more about air safety than safety of the junket. LoL

    I can try to recall details if you like but it seems you have a better source already.

    I have done way over a hundred Junket trips, including this very week.

    I use an "Independent Host" located on the East Coast.

    In 2015, I had air transport and RFB to Tunica, A. C. New Orleans, Las Vegas, etc.

    You need to play a very "polite" game of BJ and/or other games e.g. V.P.

    in order to be welcomed back. You need to play with a card.

    You may be in a locale where there are adjacent casinos that you can plunder.

    The host casinos vary in what they consider sufficient play.

    A typical expectation might be 4 hrs. / day of very light Black Action at BJ.

    What Flash said.

    It's fine to go spread 1-4 on a shoe game, or play some other game you don't think they'll snap off. But don't be spreading 1-8 on Vegas DD on a junket.
