    You're on it!!!:T :T :T
    The common law of business balance prohibits paying a little and getting a lot. If you deal with the lowest bidder, it is well to add something for the risk you run, and if you do that you will have enough to pay for something better.

    Well, found myself with a week spare in June so just booked with Northwest for the 10th-17th for £300 each changing in Detriot with only 2-3 hour layover both ways. Looked for a good deal mid strip and got Flamingo for $700 for the week, could have got IP for $350 but couldn't bring myself to stay there, and Flamingo pool is kicking in the summer!!

    No, thats what scares me:eek:
    But I had never flown with AA before a couple of months ago, and that was OK. I just look at it now as a means to an ends, most airlines now have cut services down to the bone, so just fill up the Archos and let the whole experience pass me by.

    canardo - have a great trip and let us know how much fun you had when you get back.

    stoneman - that does sound like a good deal. Don't win all the money though - we arrive the day after you leave. :)
    Does remembering a time that a certain degree of personal responsibility was more or less standard means that I am officially old?

    Hi

    This is my first post here - the advice so far has been great!

    We've not been to Vegas before and am planning to travel next April. Can someone recommend the best time to book flights - I don't want to book now if there's a chance of getting them cheaper later in the year. We're looking at around 10th April and flights at the moment are coming in at £525 pp.

    Would prefer direct flights from London - does that mean Vrigin are our only option?

    Thanks everyone!

    We have flown with NW once and I wouldn't want to repeat the experience. No seatback IFE and it was an old DC10. It got us there and back, but there are far better airlines to fly with IMO for not much more.
