    It’s a lease back. Wouldn’t expect anything to change. They’re just moving money around on the balance sheets.

    I know - the only thing that's different at Bellagio is that they have Patron and Fiji - lol. Maybe that will come back :)

    Drives me crazy. Last time at aria they wouldn’t Comp me Fiji as I needed to be noir. Bellagio and Cosmo comp it no issues.

    A lot of it is based on whatever staff member you're dealing with, I've found. There are some places that automatically give me Fiji even if I ask for a regular water; other times, they push back. Candidly, I don't notice the difference -- cold water is cold water, as far as I'm concerned -- but it's annoying that they won't do it, especially if you're playing at a decent level.

    It’s the kind of treatment I expect from a cet property not aria tbh. I showed my plat card and was told it was inadequate.

    Maybe it’s the packaging but I can tell the difference between Fiji / Evian and the generic bottles filled out back from the garden hose.

    In June the majority of the servers said it was now Platinum and Noir - still crazy if you ask me. They also no longer have Fiji in the limos.

    And @44, there is a huge difference to my discerning palate.
