Sun Country will provide travel to key Caesars’ destinations, including Reno/South Lake Tahoe, Laughlin, Atlantic City and Gulfport, Miss.

Caesars Entertainment has today announced the signing of a five-year agreement with Sun Country Airlines, restarting a relationship between the organizations that ended in 2020.

Per the terms of the agreement, which begins March 2022, the airline will provide the casino operator with charter services for its guests. Initially consisting of one aircraft, based in Laughlin, Nevada, there are plans to add an additional aircraft at a later date.

“Sun Country is thrilled to partner with Caesars to provide reliable charter service for their guests,” said Grant Whitney, Sun Country Airlines Chief Revenue Officer.

“Charter operations are a key component of our diversified business model and the great employees of Sun Country allow us to differentiate ourselves in the charter market.”

At present, a number of operators utilize charter services, including Hard Rock with its Hard Rock Air service.

“As the largest casino-entertainment company in the US, we have partnered with Sun Country to fly our loyal Caesars Rewards members to unique destinations across the country, including The Row Reno; Harrah’s and Harveys Lake Tahoe; Harrah’s and Tropicana Laughlin; Harrah’s Gulf Coast; and Caesars, Harrah’s Resort and Tropicana Atlantic City,” said Anthony Carano, President and Chief Operating Officer of Caesars Entertainment.

“We look forward to offering this convenient and reliable charter service to our guests and exploring opportunities to expand our partnership.”
