Fountainbleu Las Vegas Cancels Meetings

The famed Foutainbleu chain seems to be suffering a bit in Las Vegas. They have been in bankruptcy even before opening but professed to many meeting planners during the Incentive Travel Exchange that things would be normal soon. Apparently, not so much. Just yesterday, Travel Weekly posted an article stating that Foutainbleu has ceased construction activities and requested to cancel conventions and meetings that were booked through June 2010. In addition, current employment contracts were also requested to be cancelled. Spokesperson for the property said it fully plans to be opening by 2010 just the timing will depend on renewal of financing options.

It is a beautiful property and a great addition to the resorts along the strip. Hopefully things will work for them as it did for MGM's City Center.
