    As Vegas is 24 hour city one possibility is to stay on UK time, even if it means sleeping through the day.

    Never been to Vegas but have done long haul for a week several times including Hong Kong, Bali and Caribbean. People told me I was mad but my response was simple. I only had a week's leave so I either went for a week or I didn't go at all. No brainer IMO.

    I'd do it. I went there for three days and wouldn't to bother to go again. Really not my cup of tea. Glad I went though.

    I'll be doing 4 nights in March 2020 for a Stag bash to Vegas...
    I think that will be long enough ! (for a stag bash that is!)

    We do Vegas every year, and 14 nights isn't long enough for a holiday, but on that note, £558 for 4 nights in the Cosmo, and in-direct (ideally less than 20hrs travel time) in May = ermmmmm, a Very good price!! I would be booking it right now!!!!!!

    I had a mate who went to Vegas for a weekend whose plan was not to sleep at all but survive on caffeine and Red Bull (and maybe some other stimulants...). It didn't end well...

    Four nights is do-able if you are young and can stay awake on adrenalin - you can sleep on plane home. I would not try it at my age (56)
    Don't forget to factor in the resort fee which I doubt is included at that price.
    It really depends on the flight times with it being non direct. Our last trip out there was via Chicago on AA and the Vegas leg was moved back after we booked which lead to a 6 hour stop over in Chicago and a very delayed arrival time - not too bad as we were there 14 days but a bummer if you are only there 4
