ZORKFEST 2021 SCHEDULE
"Zorkfest is, without a doubt, the quintessential event for smart travelers. Whether it's maximizing your loyalty points or your gambling dollar, the presentations offer insight for newbies and pros, alike! I walked out of Zorkfest 2017 with a blueprint for discounted travel and a strategy to get the most freebies from the casinos. Thanks to the knowledgeable speakers at Zorkfest, I learned that paying full price to travel, stay or gamble is for suckers!" -Tony S. from Vice Lounge Online
ZorkFest Casino Travel Gambling Loyalty Conference
"I learned several tips that will help me in maximizing my Vegas experience.  Thank you, thank you, thank you. Eric Rosenthal for KING!!!!  Loved your presentation on the "cannot leave this room" secrets. I learned a LOT and can't wait for the next ZorkFest. I am AMAZED at the quality and pricing of ZorkFest.

Alt: ZorkFest Casino Travel Gambling Loyalty Conference - Plaza Hotel Casino Las Vegas
"ZorkFest is the best time and money I ever spent. If you are on the fence about going, just do it. You won't regret it. Wish I had known some of this stuff years ago. You get information from the best travel and casino experts in the world, all in one place! Whether it is casino loyalty programs (and how to spend the least for elite status), credit cards, hotel, airfare or rental car tactics, you will learn how to do it right, and at the best advantage to you, at Zorkfest. My only quibble is that the casino and travel sessions were going on at the same time and I couldn't split myself in two to attend both of them." - LinFromNJ

An unprecedented assortment of sessions on all aspects of Travel and Casino loyalty.

Hotel Points and Status

Leverage the use of hotel points for big weekends like Super Bowl and New Year’s Eve in Atlantic City and Las Vegas. Learn when you should and should not use hotel points. Hotel Status can bring you lots of extra perks; we’ll show you how to achieve hotel status without having to spend countless nights qualifying.

Casino Loyalty and Programs

How do they work? How do I earn points and status? Can I achieve the status level I desire with less play than required? We’ll cover all the hot casino loyalty topics and touch on all the major programs including: Mlife, Caesars Total Rewards, Golden Nugget, Resorts, Tropicana, some of which have partnerships with travel programs.

Travel Loyalty Programs (Airline and Hotel))

It’s not easy using frequent flyer miles/hotel points or understanding the programs. We’ll try to crack the code and teach you about earning points and spending points wisely. We shall touch on programs that include United, American Airlines, Delta, Southwest, Spirit, Marriott Rewards, Hilton HHonors, Starwood Preferred Guest and much more.

Credit Card Programs

Can you really travel for free by signing up for the right credit cards at the right time? Yes! Absolutely. We’ll show you how to travel for pennies on the dollar and how to use credit cards that help you earn points, get free trips and maximize your vacations

Casino Comp Systems

Like travel reward programs, casino loyalty comp programs can be quite mysterious. We will help you understand casino comp earnings and ratings for table games and slots/video poker so you can play less and earn more casino comps and free rooms.

Video Poker

It’s one of the best games in the casino, but to truly benefit you have to understand the rules and how to choose the right machines. Only play slots now? Understanding how to play and why video poker might be a good idea in addition to your slot play, or all by itself.

Membership Programs

There are some programs out there that can provide benefits and fast track to status and access. We’ll touch on a few including Priority Pass and FoundersCard

Casino Credit

Do you worry about carrying money to play at the casino? ATM fees are outrageous in casinos. Casino credit is free and easy to apply for and use. We will tell you why it might make sense for you.

Spend and Earn on Everything

There are so many opportunities to earn points every day. Don’t miss those opportunities. You will find out how to earn more points via shopping and everyday purchases that you can use for future travel. Hey, you are going to spend anyway, you might as well be earning points.

What is a Slot Pull?

In a Slot Pull, a team of people invest equal amounts of money into a single slot machine, and each take an equal number of pulls. The winnings from the set number of pulls is then equally distributed amongst the players. In short, it is a way of playing high denomination slots (with all the excitement that goes with it) whilst spreading the risk.

To participate in the slot pull you must do one of the following:
– Buy a ZorkFest ticket
– Stay at Plaza using the ZorkFest group rate and promotion
– Buy a ZorkFest Oscars VIP Dinner

Anthony Curtis – Las Vegas Advisor

Recognize this man? Sure, you do.You’ve seen him dozens of times on the Travel Channel, A&E, Discovery, E! Entertainment, BBC, and on and on. And you frequently read his comments in the national press. He’s Anthony Curtis and he’s the most recognized and quoted Las Vegas expert in the world.

Anthony moved to Las Vegas in 1978, shortly after he turned 21. As a young scuffler without much of a bankroll, he had to rely on his gambling skills, his street smarts, and casino promotions, loss leaders, and inadvertent largesse. In the process of taking advantage of every coupon, steak special, and drink discount in town, he became an authority in navigating Vegas on the cheap. It didn’t take him long to realize that plenty of Las Vegas visitors and locals could profit from his expertise and advice. Thus, in 1983, the Las Vegas Advisor newsletter was born.  Today, 38 years, nearly 400 issues monthly of LVA, more than 100 books, and thousands of web pages later …  if you’re looking for the best information about Las Vegas and gambling, you’ve come to the right place.  At LasVegasAdvisor.com, our philosophy is all about getting the most out of Vegas. Our monthly newsletter, the real-money savings from the incredible book of coupons that comes with it, our gambling books and products, and the voluminous up-to-date information on this website all guarantee it.

My name is Jamie Haas, and there is little that I love more than getting out-sized value for my travel dollar, whether it be an upgrade to an amazing suite, an exclusive experience, or an exotic car to drive around the Las Vegas Desert.

I’ve been married to my wife Melissa for 16 years and have a 12 year old daughter Addison and 7 year old son Ashton, who travel all over with us.

Melissa and I enjoy trips both with and without the kids. Although our travels have and continue to take us around the world, some of my favorite repeat-trips are those that take us to Disney World, the Caribbean, and to the mountains to ski and snowboard.

I have been to Disney World every year since I was born, have stayed at every Disney World property, and have been an annual pass holder for as long as I can remember. My favorite resorts are Disney’s Beach Club and Disney’s Wilderness Lodge. I love all things Disney and could talk your ear off about it, if you will let me. I love snowboarding! I try to get at least one trip in per year with the family. My favorite ski resorts are Waldorf Astoria, Park City and Fairmont Chateau Whistler.

Living in the Southeast, I feel like the Caribbean is my home away from home. With the short flights and same time zone, we are in the Caribbean multiple times per year. Baha Mar is one of my favorite resorts anywhere; between its multiple pools, amazing casino, beautiful beaches, it has everything I need. It may not have made my top three repeat-trip list; however, when I think about a “bougie” trip and outsized value, Vegas is the place to be! Between crazy suites, great dining, world class spas, limos, exotic cars, and over-the-top experiences, Vegas is hard to beat.
