:eek: Errrr i am finding nowhere near that price in mid July

We usually fly from London and get a connecting flight from belfast, but Continental via NY are consistently coming out cheapest at the moment though i'm still looking. We're going to book within the next few days so if you can show me a flight at £36o i'll be a very happy bunny:D

London flights are more than £500 for July... if you could do June these flights come down to around £420'ish --- however that's direct from London

As for going from Belfast... wow! it looks really expensive... all the time!

The best fare I could see was from Belfast was approx. £620 (which I think is roughly what you said you could find...)

If you can sort independant flights to london, and can do June then that would be a better option

Hi nvh, unfortunately i'm stuck with July as the trip is for my 30th birthday:D:j

I think we're going to book the continental flights from belfast this weekend. £620 is more than we usually pay for flights to Vegas, as we usually do go in June, but the hotel prices for those dates are the cheapest we've ever found so i guess its swings and roundabouts. Thanks again for your help x

What about flying from Dublin rather than Belfast, or is that just as expensive?

Hi Luci, yeah i've been checking dublin as well and so far belfast is working out cheaper (with continental), which is weird as Dublin is usually always cheaper

No they won't-not at the moment............unless you'd care to show them your figures are accurate and not just a number you made up ......with a link!

Whilst I agree with your point, could you not try and put it across in a more friendly and tactful manner ?

The last thing we want is this great Vegas thread (credit to Trets) turning into an unfriendly one, like so many others within these forums.

Thanks to steff for the Wynn promo link. Got 3 nights in a resort suite at Encore for $119 per night. Result. Would have liked to stay for the whole 6 nights but over the weekend the rate went up to $169 so we are doing the unthinkable and changing hotels mid trip :eek: Now the first 3 nights will be in a Go room at Flamingo for $80 per night, then the last 3 at Encore. I can't wait, we had a look at their pool area earlier this year and it looks a dream. And the bonus of a complimentry upgrade to a suite was the icing on the cake.

Hey, board is working!

In case anyone is considering checking out Criss Angel (which I would be if it were not for the horrid reviews), 40% off listed at Travelzoo - doesn't seem to be on the Cirque discounts page either directly or through Cirque Club (25% at Cirque Club)

Also, Ka at nearly 50% off and Zumanity at 35%

Plus Jubilee! $35 off.

And discount on Le Reve which appears to now include the VIP package.

Was thinking of going to see Criss Angel, has anyone here seen it? I've seen mixed reviews as well but sometimes I have been to things and seen reviews from Americans that I just do not understand unless they were somewhere different.

Also has anyone been to The Price Is Right Show and is it worth it, my gf really wants to go. I've seen it on offer with travelzoo but is it available at tix4tonite often? (I have looked but havent seen it listed on the sneakpeak page).

Criss Angel reviews are almost all pretty terrible...I was so looking forward to seeing it but can't bring myself to book tickets on the back of the reviews.

Last I saw, TPIR isn't available at the 1/2 price booths, but it seems that lately more and more discounts are available for shows which were rarely discounted before so maybe it is now. We haven't been (it's always seemed a bit pricey to us - have always said at 1/2 price we would consider it)...the reviews I've read are mixed...if you do go be sure to sign up for the Total Rewards club before you go as one of the common prizes is TR credits which you can use toward food, shows, etc. at most Harrah's casino restaurants, etc.
