    ah, I must have missed it...I also think we've decided that 3 hours seems quite a long time...1 hour for $50 might be more realistic.


    I am with you, I would love to have a go, but think I would get bored way before 3 hours is up.

    Well, we finally booked our trip tonight! Flying out on Fri 9th September for 4 nights in San Francisco and then onto Vegas on Tues 13th for 14 nights :beer::beer::beer: We are flying indirect with Air Canada both ways and the internal flight is with Continental. Flights were £655 each, would have been a lot less with just a return to Vegas or if we had booked 5 months ago, but hey ho. I have been checking prices daily for about the last 3 weeks with no change, so just decided to go for it.

    Let the planning commence - the good bit!!

    Dont look anymore!!

    I think that a big part of the three hours might be health and safety and other training before you get to have a bash at the machines.

    Oh and the Aria has good desserts. They are made by Jean-Phillipe Patisserie.

    if there was one reason alone to visit Vegas, it would be to sample delights from here! nom nom nom! roll on July (and I will be rolling out of there!)

    there's one patisserie in the back of the Aria (off the casino, near the entrance opposite Vdara) and one towards the back of the Bellagio (from the lobby, head towards the conservatory, just round the corner from there).

    You would have thought that but (I only read it quickly) it says 15 minutes for training.

    Hello guys
    We are off in 2 days! Flying to LA with British Airways, then returning back from Vegas with stopover in Chicago with American Airlines.
    Now guys at work got me very worried with stories about people nearly not been able to get on return flight. They say, that if you don't confirm 24hour before your return flight that you are flying, airline can sell your seat?:eek:
    Is that correct or are they just pulling my leg?
    We are not taking notebook with us and don't have Iphone, so don't know how would we confirm..:(
    Please advise, really worried..
    Best wins ever:
    2012: Holiday to LA for 2 adults +2 kids for 4 days
    2013: £2 000 Virgin Holiday Voucher!
    2014: $1000 spending money for hols
    2015: 8 night holiday to Thailand

    Call the airline from your room if it is a free local call, or call them from payphone it will only be a few cents.

    There are prob other options but that is what I have done in the past
