your only problem maybe if you are not in Vegas for very long or leave it till the last day. our trip with Heliusa got cancelled in the morning due to a minor thing being wrong with the helicopter. the 2 ladies due to fly with us were moving on late afternoon by internal flight , so never got re-book for the late afternoon tour.

all the companys on the guide page are very reputable i would think ,

Just booked 3 nights in June via Priceline and got the Palazzo. Then read the Trip Advisor reviews:eek: Hopefully it will have improved by June. Looks to be in a good position and the rooms look fantastic. Paid £79 plus taxes for a 5 star hotel. Will spend a further two nights somewhere else, perhaps more kid friendly. Am sure if I hold off till nearer the time I will be able to get some good bargains but am so excited, just want to get it all booked. We also will be wanting to do Grand Canyon. Was Heli USA the best, despite the hiccups, in your opinion?

Looks like I could be the first MSE member at the Palazzo!

Just booked 2 nights 4 & 5 May on Priceline so that's me sorted for all 12 nights.

Not keen on the reviews on TA, but hope that we don't need to use the services much as that seems to be the main complaint.

Bit confused by their internet access. I'm sure it says on their site that it's complimentary and yet one of the reviews says it's $9.95 for 24 hours.

Has anyone used in room internet access in Vegas? I only want to use it for one 24 hour period per stay at 4 hotels, but wonder how they work it. Do they give you a code that's only good for 24 hours? I won't be using it if I have to have it for the full stay.

"oh and I forgot mytravel direct from manchester approx 11 hrs we paid £300 for 3 of us last year" (quote from 2007 thread.)

How do you get these prices, do you have to keep telephoning as the website only gives prices for 2 days ahead. Thanks.

I have used in room internet and yes you are billed per 24 hours access, cant remember exactly how but you dont need to have it for the whole stay.

There are a few places on the strip that hire out flash cars for the day or even hour,there is 1 between PH and the MGM, you cant miss it as the cars are parked out the front. I dont know if you can book before you get ther though
