Just an off chance.

Anyone flying BMI from Manchester Either Sunday 15th Feb or Sun 1st March, want free BMI Business lounge access.

I will be on BMI flight from Manchester to Vegas tomorrow morning for work, and can get one person into the BMI Business lounge if anyone is going that way tomorrow morning.

And again from Manchester to Vegas on Sunday 1st March (Can get 2 people in on that day)

I know its a long shot but just in case anyone needs an invite in,

If on the same flight I can probably get upgrades for 1 or 2 people from Economy to Premium as well (Subject to spare seats)

PM me...

That is a very kind offer. Hope someone can take advantage, what a bonus:T :T

I'm having a few days in Vegas in a fortnight, and am needing a room to crash in for a night - probably two - when I first get in from LA.

I'm looking at the $36 Excalibur rooms and thinking "Hmmmm...." - however, I've emailed them to ask if they can cater for a super-late check-in - my flight gets in from LAX at 00.07, so I'm guessing I'd be checking in about 1am? - and not heard back. I don't want to go ahead and book if they turn around and say I need to pay extra to check in then or whatever - it can't be that uncommon. Anyone done it?

Also - the fitness centre there. Is it any good. If I do stay two nights, I'll hopefully try and get a workout in. I'm loosely planning that just now, as I suspect I'll be fairly hungover from a few days in LA with my mates before that. Oh dear... but it's a virtuous thought, and if it's a nice enough gym, I'm more likely to go.

Check in time is not a problem in Vegas dont know about the gym but I am sure that it will be adequate

Many thanks all.

Hi I found this deal on http://www.netflights.com. I've now booked it at that rate (£49.75 a night) although the prices keep fluctuating as this morning it is up by £20. Seems to be a great deal as I can't get close to that on any other site. They are showing some good deals for June-August too.

That is great, someone else posted that they had found a great offer on netflights. Is there any catches, if not it is a very good deal.

No catches I can see - it is subject to the daily resort charge of $4.99 (to cover free local calls, 2x bottles of water and newspaper). Just for location this has to be a good deal!

I can get 4 nights in May for £150! I have the MGM booked at the mo...at a Gran Tower room.

What do you think is nicer?

Gran Tower room MGM or Planet Hollywood. From what I can see the pools are better at MGM.....I know obviously the location of PH is better.....

Any tips...i could cancel my MGM one and get the Planet Hollywood!

OK, please don't shout at me, I'm sure this must have been covered before, so I've tried doing a search but I couldn't find it.....

I'd like information on getting from the airport to the strip (we're staying at Excalibur). There will be 3 of us, plus bags.

Any advice on relative merits/ disadvantages of any particular way, buses, cabs etc would be appreciated.
Thanks
