Still waiting to hear from Ak-Chin. For those of you that like St. Louis. We have a trip from Milwaukee, May 6-9. We still have a few seats on the June 10-14 Las Vegas flight from Milwaukee. Some people are saying that it is too hot in Vegas during June, July & August. I think the casino's are air conditioned. I might have to skip those months and start Vegas in Sept. Most likely will also do Oct. & Nov. Want to do at least two more from Appleton before December. Was in Vegas last week. The machines were so TIGHT that I lost $22.00. Going to Tunica on Monday, maybe I can win back my $22.00. May the good Lord keep you all safe and healthy. Jim

Just received the following charter flights to Atlantic city from:
Green Bay, June 16-19
Milwaukee, July 28-31
Mosinee, Aug. 25-28
Green Bay, Sept. 21-25
Most of you have heard me say that my two favorite destinations are New Orleans & Atlantic City, so I am really looking forward to more AC trips.

For those of you that get invited to the commercial flight trips, I added St. Louis from Milwaukee, May 6-9.

Please don't wait for me to up date this blog. I usually spend more time in casinos then in my office. Please check out the web site at fun-day.com

I will be escorting an over night bus to the Island Casino in MI on Sunday & Monday. Then back to Vegas on Fri.

I hope that when I return in a week and a half that spring is here. (again)

May the good Lord bless you and keep you safe.

Finally, I am back in WI for more then two days at a time. Maybe I can get some work done.
Spent most of the last three weeks in Vegas and Laughlin. Really nothing new in either city.
I told every one on the plane, returning from Laughlin, on Fri. that the slot machines were very tight.
I was out $17.00. If you feel sorry for me, I do accept donations, clothes, housing, food, cars, jewelery. Alright, I'm just kidding. But not about the money, I was really out $17.00.

The question has came up too many times for me not to respond. My company Fun-Day, Inc was founded in 1988. I started doing charters for Laughlin in 1995 and for Harrah's in Laughlin in 1998. I was the ONLY WI. rep for Harrah's at that time. It was my job to fill all of the planes from WI.

Later Wojo Tours convinced Harrah's to let him put people on the flights.

We are competitors.

I have not set up any Vegas flights for July or Aug. Last year most people said that it was too hot and they did not want to during the summer.
Your thoughts?

Ak-Chin tells me that their new hotel will be ready by late July.
I will check back with them after that.

Is the Grand Casino in Bossier City worth going to?

Two new Harrah's are been built in Ohio. One to open this year and the other to open in 2012.

Ak Chin Casino told me that they do not have enough rooms in their hotel to handle groups, but as soon as they add more rooms, I can set it up. If any of you get there let me know the progress of the new hotel.
This is for all 4 of the people that read my blog. Sorry that have neglected keeping this up-dated.
Will try to do better, but as you know I am really not around much.
Good news. St. Louis wants us back. Will try to set up a flight in spring.
Reno/Lake Tahoe also wants me to bring in a group this spring, but, I can not find a direct flight from WI. I do believe that if you want to go there you should be willing to change planes. Let me know your thoughts.
Las Vegas from Appleton has become difficult. Allegiant Air, they fly direct from Appleton, dissolved their group tour booking department. I can not buy tickets and later give Allegiant names. Must have the names first, then buy tickets in those names. They will not allow name changes. So if you sign up for Vegas out of Appleton, the ticket is purchased in your name, if you don't go, you will be billed the full cost of your ticket.
Which Harrah's properties would you like to go to?
If enough people want the same place, I will be happy to set it up.

May your stuffing be tasty,
May your turkey be plump,
May your potatoes and gravy
never have a lump.
May your yams be delicious
and your pies take the prize,
and may your Thanksgiving dinner
Stay off your thighs!
Happy Thanksgiving Everyone

Thanks for the info about the tram. Will look for it when I'm back in Vegas, first week in Nov.
A few changes. As of now there will not be any charters going to Reno/Lake Tahoe in 2011. Reno wants me to bring guests out on commercial flights. If anyone knows if there are direct flights from WI. to Reno please let me know.

Atlantic City is trying to cut back on their charters. They will let me have a flight out of Milwaukee in March if I agree to fill 100 seats. Do any of you want to go to AC and could you bring 50 friends?

We have added some Tunica flights, check the web site @ fun-day.com
My web master keeps the flights up to date, but don't look at the bus schedules.

Going back to Laughlin on Thursday. Must leave home by 3:30 am. It is a 8:15 am flight. First time that a Laughlin flight has left before noon. Maybe I should drive to Milwaukee Wed. night. But then I would spend all of my gambling money ($50.00) on a room.
