Those mountains are way too close for a start. See my photo below, it may be at a different angle but you would surely be able to see the tops of the mountain

its definately photoshopped, you can see where those mountains have been added and merged into the pic of the luxor

Hi all.

Has anyone used the Harrahs Friends and Family promo before to book a room? I've got a decent rate for a Go Luxury room at the Flamingo using it but I'm a bit concerned they might ask for proof of a referral at check-in.

Any thoughts?

Yes I used one in December at the Flamingo (worked out cheaper than my own total rewards card)-no problem at all and no questions asked

(I used the one on fatwallet)

If the lads are likely to be a bit "jolly" and start drinking before boarding-VS are more tolerent of this than BA. Technically any airline can refuse boarding if they believe you are intoxicated and might be a hazard on the flight.

This is what it should look like - there's actually a touch of snow at the very top.

Have used it twice, no questions at check in. Friends and Family covers so many people, if not everyone anyway

Yes, and they did run out of booze on our flight there in June last year....there AND back. Seats weren't great either, I thought the leg room was pretty poor for long haul

Check hotel rates before booking your flights - March Madness (American university basketball touranment) will bump up hotel prices quite a lot for a period in March...worth checking at least before you're committed on flights.

As for Virgin or BA - I've only ever flown Virgin and agree with the others about its shortcomings, though the flight times are better (IMHO).
