LAS VEGAS (KLAS) — In a third quarter earning’s call, Caesars Entertainment Chief Executive Officer Tom Reeg said the company plans to begin the process of selling one property along the Las Vegas Strip in early 2022.
Reeg did not elaborate on which property might be sold, but did say the company does not “expect to sell a second property” and that he thinks it will limited to one property.
Another item brought up on the call was the ongoing shortage of guest room attendants across the company. He said all properties are having trouble hiring enough employees for these positions and in Las Vegas it has led to mid-week caps on occupancy. Reeg said he hopes the caps will be lifted once the pandemic restrictions ease.
