Going back to Vidanta in Oct and we know we will have another tour… of course, what are some incentives or upgrades you managed to get? TIA

We already don’t pay the resort fee so that’s good, we are going to ask for Spa services for sure as well! Thanks!

View and unit upgrades are typically offered to owners.

It's been a while since we were to either NV or RM due to COVID; you didn't really say which side you'll be visiting and it does make a bit of a difference. I'm assuming you're going to NV using your own week in a studio loft since you said you aren't paying a resort fee and didn't list a loft size in the resorts owned part of your profile. As @T-Dot-Traveller mentioned, ask for view and unit upgrades. You could also ask for tours like Rhythms of the Night, which I understand is open now, or San Sebastian. If you actually stop and talk to the body snatchers at the airport, Vidanta would match whatever offer they've made you to attend a tour there as long as you have it in writing - I haven't done this myself, although I've taken up a sales presentation offer from off site when I was staying at Buganvilias and got both the tours I mentioned.

If they try to offer you the "free vacation" or "free flight" certificates or things like that, be a bit skeptical. We've gotten those in the past and they really aren't worth it due to restrictions, fees, etc.

Also, you would likely get more responses to this in the Mexico forum; a moderator could move this thread there. @Karen G?
