Guray said he didn’t know that tens of thousands of hotel workers were in the middle of contract negotiations before he planned his trip. The only item on his itinerary was a dinner reservation with a friend at one of his favorite restaurants - Bacchanal, the luxury buffet at Caesars Palace. Outside Caesars Palace on Wednesday, visitor Joshua Guray told The Associated Press he came in on a morning flight from Los Angeles and had planned to be in Las Vegas for less than 24 hours. The pact with Caesars came after 20 hours of bargaining that began Tuesday and stretched into Wednesday morning.Ĭaesars said in a statement that the agreement “recognizes the integral contributions our Team Members have made to the success we have seen in Las Vegas over the last few years” with meaningful wage increases and opportunities for growth tied to plans to bring more union jobs to the Strip.
