LA to LV flights on Southwest (luggage included) can be had for $72 return (bad times though).

Hi all
I have downloaded the my Vegas app and had a few spins.

I am confused though. Can anybody explain it to me simply.

I go to Vegas in August. So I keep playing and then print out boychers before I go snd then redeem at the mylife desk? Is this correct?

I am a bit confused.

Is there a bad time to fly into Vegas ?

Flyertalk forum know all the rules but a 20 minute change is nothing and unless you have a flexible ticket then the chances of cancelling with a refund are zero IMO, not sure a 2 hour change is even enough and it also depends how long before travel you are informed.

out of interest why have you had second thoughts

I want to fly into San Francisco a few days earlier, spend a few days there then hire a car and drive to Vegas. Then fly out of LV back home.

I was thinking it would be cheaper to rebook if I could rather than paying to change my booking I've already got - flying into Vegas.

Another option was to keep my flights as they are and get an internal flight to San Francisco.

Stick with WestJet, so u can fill us in! Its a new route starting with them, so it should be nice new stuff hopefully from here to Canada....

I was gonna book with them last year, as the Gatwick-Toronto-LV route was looking good at £550..... I didn't book in the end as I left it too long and the baggage stuff changed, adding £100 extra to the flight......
Reviews about them as a whole are quite good, so the long-haul from Gatwick into Canada should be good!
Or at least u will be telling us all that when u go from next month, onwards, etc.....

*** GATWICK PARKING ***
Anyone help with some hidden gems ? Need to park for 2 weeks, but for some bizarre reason, its costing £140 + to park, which is odd, real odd!!
So if anyone knows of drive-way parking, or just good priced places to park, I'm all ears!

Bus stop to airport about 500 yards. Airport 2 miles away.

I booked after the baggage changed so I've got to add that on top ☹️

I think I'll ring and see what the price is to change my flight to a few days earlier flying into SF instead of LV. I might even cheekily see if they'll waive the change of booking fee

Let us know how you get on, they may class it as a new booking rather than a change , will be good to know how flexible they are
