November/December

4th November to 3rd December. Tony hates short trips, (Can you tell?) It'll be our first time flying out of Manchester with BMI. I haven't got any hotels lined up yet, too early for that.

I would have thought for that length of stay renting a house would be cheaper.We went for 3 weeks in Dec-Jan and rented a lovely house in Summerlin for $1,500. With all the repossessions going on house rental prices are cheap as chips at the moment. but then, I guess most people prefer to stay around the strip.

Just to add to this comment! Check out VRBO, they have quite a few Signature properties on their listings. You might be able to negotiate a really good deal for your trip...

Thanks for the suggestion. We might look in to renting a house, but we really don't mind moving around a bit to get a good deal. I'll let you know what I come up with. Off to look at that site now.

Are those prices including a room? I tried the mytravel site and it seemed to be saying it was but with no details. Seems ludicrously cheap.

They are the flight only prices. Don't think there are rooms available at short notice.

I think it would say something after the 1x if there was a room included - i.e. 1 x double or something similar.

There's nothing in the hotel rating section either.
