Probably the last place we expected to see technology improvements at a casino is at the valet, but on a recent trip to Caesars Palace we came across something new when we dropped our car off. Instead on being handed a perforated ticket for our car, we were handed a plastic playing card.
OK, cool. So what's the big deal with this? We can tell of two ways this helps us - speed and strength. This electronic card speeds up the process since the valet does not have to write our information down on paper. On pickup, we no longer have to fumble for the little ticket stub when we get the car. Of course, since these cards are recycled and better for the environment, it may also save the casino a few dollars in the future.
The only other plus we noticed is that the paper card we're used to getting wouldn't be ripping in our pocket anymore while we were having fun inside. Between mobile phone, wallet, money, players cards and gum, our pockets are fairly active. We often fear the paper card will rip and/or fall put of our pocket. The last thing we want when we valet our car is to have an issue picking it up when we want to leave.
There is pretty much no way we'll lose this card and since everything is electronic (bar codes and such) there is almost no way the valet will lose our car. The only place we've seen this, so far, is at Caesars Palace and we hope this speeds up our escape from the casino at the end of the night and begins to make its way around Vegas as it becomes a proven way to expedite time spent in a valet and we like that!
