MGM MIRAGE (NYSE: MGM) (www.mgmmirage.com) - As our government
ramps up promotion of U.S. travel to potential visitors abroad,
non-English-speaking visitors need look no further than the Web
sites of The Strip's hottest resorts to research and book their
ideal Las Vegas vacation. Offering multi-language Web sites and
booking engines, the resorts of MGM MIRAGE are set to ensure
overseas travelers practical trip planning, online in their own
language with no interpreter needed.
While a few Las Vegas hotels offer Spanish versions of their
site's main pages, the MGM MIRAGE resorts offer guests the
opportunity to research and actually book rooms online in a minimum
of five languages, including Japanese, Italian, German, French and
Spanish. Chinese is anticipated to be added this summer.
"Years ago MGM MIRAGE made a commitment to expand our Web
offerings and make it convenient for non-English-speaking guests to
book a stay at our resorts. Consequently we are light years ahead
of the competition in the depth and breadth of our multi-language
content and booking capabilities," said Bill Hornbuckle, chief
marketing officer for MGM MIRAGE.
With the recent Congressional approval of the Travel Promotion
Act (TPA), the U.S. Travel Association predicts a nation-wide
annual increase of as many as 1.6 million international visitors.
Citywide, approximately 14 percent of visitors in 2009 were from
outside U.S. borders, although some properties average a
significantly higher percentage than the city-at-large. It is
predicted that the TPA will help increase international visitation
to 20 percent of Las Vegas' overall visitation.
"Las Vegas has become an increasingly popular destination for
international visitors and the passing of the TPA promises to build
that popularity," said Hornbuckle. "Our advance efforts have left
us perfectly poised to ensure our guests the quality of service
they have come to expect from MGM MIRAGE."
Accessible via drop-down menus on the home page, the
language-option Web sites and booking engines can be found on all
Las Vegas MGM MIRAGE property sites including ARIA Resort &
Casino, Bellagio, Vdara Hotel & Spa, Mandalay Bay, The Mirage
and MGM Grand.
