LAS VEGAS (AP) — A union representing hospitality workers says it has reached a tentative agreement with six more hotel-casinos in downtown Las Vegas and called off a strike deadline for another.
The agreements averted a Monday morning walkout threat at several near-Strip and downtown properties as the city kicks off Super Bowl week.
The culinary and an associated bartenders union are being given more time to reach an agreement with Virgin Las Vegas, an off-Strip resort.
The union then turned its attention to winning the same contract terms for workers at other hotel-casinos in Las Vegas.
The NFL’s 58th championship game is expected to bring some 330,000 people to Las Vegas this week, according to the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority.
