    Steve don't forget if you find a deal with one of the 3rd party suppliers on line then GoldCoast/Orleans will price match (but no paying up full amount up-front or locked into cancelation charges way ahead) Much better deal. I've price matched two or three times on the same stay before now as better deals showed up.
    Also if you have a Coast card log into Coast's B-Connected (you need your card number to register) and check for deals or comps. I've had 2 sets of comps (free room plus food credit) this year from them -and never got them before-so worth checking.
    Happy 50th btw :)

    Hi all, just wondered if anyone no's what NWA and AA are like as I will be flying from Vegas to Hawaii, via LA in september. There is only 90 minutes between flights and I cant seem to find insurance fom UK companies to cover possible missed departures. I booked this myself and should have left myself more time between flights. Expedia would have insured me but the price ment it wasnt worth while. Debating whether to just risk it or not. Any help/ideas/advice would be great, thanks.

    Yikes that is a bit tight -Have you checked to see if there is a terminal change too?
    At least you'll have already cleared customs but you WILL need to collect your luggage and recheck it as you're on two different tickets0 and Vegas can be horribly slow for bags coming through.
    It's do-able if everything goes your way-but if you can change to a later flight (or next day) for not much money it may be a good investment.
    I'm assuming you have the onward flight on a seperate ticket.
    Put it like this I fly a lot and I would consider what you're hoping to do risky to the point I wouldn't do it personally on a cheap fare that may be invalid if you miss your connection.
    Sorry-I know that isn't what you want to hear

    Hi peeps

    Just back at the IP after our stay at the Encore and a bit of shopping. The room was gorgeous! Loved our stay there. Had my birthday dinner at Switch last night a couple of days early and it was excellent... Didn't tell hubby about the changing walls and it was taken by surprise.

    Can't believe we only have 4 more nights here and would love to stay longer, not that I think the finances would allow as we're going through money like water the past few days.

    Will post my blog when I've got round to it. Looking forward to the meet and hope I manage to spot the group.

    Oooo thanks for the links! We saw all 3 changes while we were there. The food was wonderful and the service was excellent. We had 4 or 5 different people serve us and it wasn't pretentious at all.
