Knowledge 18 Venetian packages

Dubz · ‎02-20-2018

Hi All,

Just wondering if anyone knows if the Venetian packages listed on the Knowledge 18 booking are for the full price of the hotel for the duration or if the hotel price is on top of that? It's not really clear, it says 'ability to book a room at Venetian or Palazzo' on the one hand $395 seems a bit expensive for just the extras listed if the room is more on top but on the other hand, it is Vegas...!

The hotel is on top of the listed package price. The package gives you the listed items including the ability to book the Venetian or Palazzo hotel. From my inquiry with knowledge@servicenow.com:

You will need to purchase the Limited Edition Package in order to book a room at the Venetian or Palazzo Hotels, and you won't be able to book a room at these two hotels without that package. Alternatively, attendees can book at the other hotels offered through the registration portal.

Why is this so different than all the years past. Seem a little bit much to have to pay for a package plus hotel. If you don't buy the package and stay in other hotels are we not getting a T-shirt, backpack, etc this year.

Yep, David, you have it right. A little disappointed that there's now a premium to book your hotel. Most companies will not fund that extra up charge so we went off premise to The Mirage. The conference room rates are good, we couldn't get it any cheaper through our corporate travel site. Its a close 15 minute walk to the conference. Not bad when you consider the walking distance at Mandalay was 20 minutes from you room to the conference floor and that was in the same complex. One thing for sure....we will all get our steps in every day....so wear comfy footwear. Looking forward to K18!
