I just got this email re the 7* Signature event in Tahoe:
"This exciting event just keeps getting better! In addition to all of the
great amenities and experiences featured at the Seven Stars Signature Event at
Lake Tahoe, we just added another wonderful offer for you to enjoy.
For attending the event, we will be offering each invited guests a 7-Day
complimentary Norwegian Cruise Line certificate. You’ll be able to set sail and

In addition to the NCL Cruise Line Certificate, the event offer includes
• Airfare reimbursement (this varies - I got $1200 for 2 people, some people
received less or none)
• Four-night luxury hotel accommodations at Harrah’s or Harveys Lake Tahoe

----------
I'll be going March 19 with my friend Siona (who runs the AC VP group).
Note however, if this certificate is like the one I previously received from
Caesar's Palace, there are some restrictions. Some cruises may not be
included, there may be blackout dates. Also it must be booked within a certain
period of time and used within a year or so. I don't believe it is
transferable. Also you pay your own airfare, port taxes, fees, NCF (whatever that is),
gratuities. For the Alaskan cruise I booked, it was Oceanview (you can pay
for upgrades) and I ended up paying over $600 for the port taxes and NCF, so
not exactly "free." Drinks in the casino are free however (can be a big
savings).
But even so, quite a nice deal.
Lake Tahoe is quite beautiful. Though it will be cold and possibly snowy in
March.
