Harrahs Adds Starwood To Total Rewards Alliance

I notice that Harrah’s added Starwood to their Total Rewards Alliance while I was poking around Total Rewards to make sure I was confirmed for an upcoming trip to Atlantic City. The Total Rewards Alliance includes deals with Norwegian Cruise Lines and Hawaiian Airlines. Here are the details on how things will work with Starwood.

I’m a starwood member and try to stay at their locations whenever I travel, so getting Total Rewards points is just a bonus. I don’t see many points coming from this, but if I can get a free meal out of some business travel I’ll take it.
