Caesars Entertainment Las Vegas casinos to return to full occupancy

Caesars Entertainment announced it has received a waiver from the Nevada Gaming Control Board to return Las Vegas casinos to full occupancy.

Caesars’ Las Vegas properties can now allow 100% occupancy on casino floors without social distancing measures or plexiglass dividers. The GCB waiver applies to Bally’s Las Vegas, Caesars Palace Las Vegas, The Cromwell, Flamingo Las Vegas, Harrah’s Las Vegas, The LINQ Hotel + Experience, Paris Las Vegas, Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino, Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino

Caesars employees and guests will still be required to wear masks indoors. The company said fully vaccinated guests can remove their masks when seated at any of the resorts’ pool areas.

“The expansion to full capacity and the elimination of social distancing on our casino floors in Las Vegas is a result of our Team Members’ commitment to doing their part to put us all on the road to recovery,” said Tom Reeg, CEO of Caesars Entertainment. “We are grateful to our Team Members who have chosen to be vaccinated and will continue to offer incentives and provide easy, on-site access to vaccines for all of our Team Members in Las Vegas. While this shift is encouraging, we understand that the battle is not yet won, and it is through a continued commitment to health and safety that Las Vegas can most quickly rebound.”

Caesars is the latest Las Vegas operator approved for full casino floor occupancy, joining the likes of Wynn Resorts and MGM Resorts.
