Just got an email from Cosmopolitan that my tier status, which is Platinum, would be extended to April 30, 2021. The email also said that all tier benefits will be reloaded to my account May 1st, even if I have already used them. I am not sure what that means, will have to check. Typically I don't use any of the offers anyway, as the host is simply comp'ing everything.
I recall when I first started playing I was barely legal age to gamble, and I played heavily at BJ and won some money, and then some host took me down to their VIP office and said that she was my host now. I started asking about points because I had heard about that and she said that points were for "the little players" and that I didn't need to worry about things like that that she would just take care of me whenever I wanted to visit. Similarly now, these points that accumulate don't really mean a lot I think they are more for slots players. Although, at Cosmo you may transfer the points to your Marriott rewards account and use them at non-gaming casinos.
In any case, what this tells me - this extension of tier status not just to the end of the year (which is what Palms is doing) but to April 2021 - is that Vegas is aware that even after they reopen that people might not be flocking back to their casinos right away. I was thinking the same, that extension of tier status or whatever to the end of the year might not be enough. It's one thing to start going back to the gym when they reopen, another to jump back into going to a casino and staying in hotel rooms.
