What kind of deluxe room? They have deluxe rooms in most of the towers I think...Palace Tower Deluxe? That's my guess based on prices...we've stayed in one of them and it was brilliant, really really big, lovely big bath, separate shower...etc...that said, Forum Tower is newly renovated and meant to be very nice.

No it was just standard deluxe room i think, will be trying the $20 trick anyway so hopefully get an upgrade

Thomas Cook have direct flights for £406 leaving on March 30th 2011 . it includes a hire car , but you don't need to pick that up . if you do collect it , you may get stung on the insurance payments so research those .

That £406 direct is superb value and won't last long . and you won't get cheaper !!!

don't search for a flight on the TC site . click on holidays and ask it price up a holiday to Las Vegas leaving from Manchester 7 days .

you can find a hotel later if you want or take one of the packages now .



we purchased our Ipods in USA and the Apple store said the Warranty was worldwide . they don't break anyway .
Apple Store is deep inside The Fashion Show Mall . they are always helpful in Apple store , and you won't be the 1st brit to ask about taking a Ipod home .

wow, good find on the ticket price trett not seen it that low in ages!!!

Hi folks we are off to LV in just over 2 weeks time. It will be our first visit! We are flying from NCL via LHR direct ot LAS and staying at the Venetian. It's DH 40th and not sure we will ever have the funds to do it again so thought we would go with the best we could afford!

I have read this thread from beginning to end and picked up quite a few tips, thanks for all the pointers in saving a few $ here and there.

Having 3 kids (that we are leaving behind) we can only manage a 4 night stay, so are hoping to fit as much in as possible! We have already booked a sunset helicopter trip to the GC which includes a fly over strip on the return, but would also like to go to top of statosphere, rollercoaster at NY NY, Eiffel tower, Bellagio fountains, lion enclosure at MGM and see a show at some point! Can we fit all this in, in such a short trip?

Your feedback would be of great help to us!

Many thanks in advance

I didn't think their standard rooms were referred to as deluxe though...

On their website...

Roman Tower Room
Classic Room
Forum Tower Deluxe Room
Palace Tower Deluxe Room
Augustus Tower Deluxe Room
Palace Tower Premium Room

It seems if you pre order his album you can get a code for tomorrows pre sale. I assume this is just for residents of the US though. What chances do you think that codes will be leaked?

According to LV Advisor, they are on sale now with no mention of a pre-sale code

Tickets for the shows start at $69 and are available from the box office and from all Ticketmaster outlets.

easy . there should not be a huge queue for The Manhatten Express Roller coaster . Make sure you get 2 for 1 . ( check magazines ect ). head over to the MGM lion Enclosure afterwards over the walkway that links NYNY and MGM

Eiffel Tower can only hold so many people at at time , but i went late afternoon and i got straight up . You can see the Bellagio Fountains from the top .

There may be a queue to go up the Strat , but we only waited 10-15 mins .

Even if you have booked you may still be able to cancel and change the booking

Maybe you made a small mistake or maybe they are sending out different offers to different people but our email today was for $119 with a $25 AMEX gift card.
