    The cafe in Ballys called Nosh makes the most amazing breakfast croissants and meatball subs - yum yum. Hope it's still there :D

    It is still there or it was a few weeks ago - we've never actually eaten there - maybe have to try it next trip!
    Does remembering a time that a certain degree of personal responsibility was more or less standard means that I am officially old?

    Time for my first quesiton :)

    Has anyone been to La Reve - would you care to comment?

    Admittedly I haven't searched for long but can't seem to find any trailers or anything. Obviously we found the info here: https://boxoffice.wynnlasvegas.com/shows_info.html

    Also, did you manage to see what the VIP bit was like. Thinking of pushing the boat out if it's a decent performance and it's worth the comfy seats :D

    thanks in advance :)

    Any advice please? If you want a very last minute flight, how do you go about it, and how much should you expect to pay

    check out the Thomas cook price checks i do most mondays . i think the lowest ever seen was £149 but usually £250 ( checking monday to fly wednesday) before june and after early sept is achievable ( provided no major events ...e.g.a ricky hatton fight ) but it depends on the dates .

    I have a spreadsheet with last years Mytravel prices and have been doing the same with this year's Thomas cook. They are definitely NOT going down as much as last year. If you don't mind when you go, then by all means wait for them to drop. We decided to go for a more expensive flight this May because,

    Whatever you decide, have fun in Vegas!

    1. TCX baggage allowance is pants. (15kg free - £50 for and extra 5kg each) We have 2 X 23 kg with USAirways. The flights have cost us £429 each which I think is not bad.

    2. We had definite dates in mind.

    3. The difference between what we would have to pay excess negated the chance of waiting. (I hope that makes sense. We go to Vegas regularly. The shopping is awesome. If we did a Thomas Cook/ Mytravel flight it is almost guaranteed we will have excess on the way back.
