Resorts, Mohegan casinos launch linked program

Resorts has begun a new joint marketing program in which its gamblers and those two other Mohegan-owned casinos in Connecticut and Pennsylvania can use rewards points at any of the three destinations.

Mohegan Gaming Advisors, a subsidiary of the Mohegan Tribal Gaming Authority, recently won state approval to run the day-to-day affairs of Resorts following the death earlier this year of Resorts co-owner Dennis Gomes.

The company will now let gamblers use their credits at Resorts, as well as Mohegan Sun in Connecticut and Mohegan Sun at Pocono Downs in Pennsylvania.

"With both our properties in Connecticut and Pennsylvania, our approach has always been focused on the guest experience and ensuring that each time a guest experiences one of our exciting destinations, they leave wanting to come back and do it all over again," said Mitchell Etess, CEO of the Mohegan Tribal Gaming Authority. "With the addition of Resorts, we are now able to expand and augment our unique offerings to include an iconic beachfront destination. It's our hope that guests will really take advantage of this new platform to try one of our properties that they might have not considered in the past."
