2021 WLS Summit Book

 Consideration of shifts to electronic and/or stadium gaming for table games. High Value Customers  Configuring of private gaming salons for exclusive use by high-value gamers or for rental by groups. Salons would have dedicated servers and premium food and beverage offerings. With advance reservations, specific games could be moved in and out until such time as multi-game stations are developed.  Reconfiguration of players’ club benefits to focus even more intensively on higher-value gamers and reduce incentives to bottom level gamers.  Creation of “gaming concierge” staff for top tier customers to ensure that they have the games they want when they want them, guide them to the right locations personally when they arrive and cater to such other needs as they may have.  Adjustments to table minimums, and machine minimums to emphasize higher wagering levels per customer, even at the cost of some lower value patrons.  Creative engagement with regulators to develop/adjust regulations as needed to accomplish above goals. Food and Beverage Service  Design and operational planning for increased food and beverage service on the gaming floor, including necessary regulatory changes, ordering equipment, space to set food and drinks and shifts in staffing.  Reconfiguration of buffets and other underutilized restaurants and bars to food court or food hall concepts or other space needs.  Shifting of menu mixes to ease the transition to on-floor consumption but maintain quality and freshness.  Increases in outdoor dining and drinking areas where space and climate permit, including increased climate buffering efforts such as awnings, heaters, coolers/misters and windscreens.  Adjustments to marketing efforts and players’ club rewards away from discounted food and beverage.  Premium food and beverage service for high-value customers and private gaming areas.  Enhanced room service for casinos with hotels and increased packaged food vending and microwavable or kitchenette-preparable food.
