Vegas 2011 Links


Recommended Posts

Posted

I thought it might be nice to start a forum with links that will help as time gets closer for finding deals, good rates, things to do, etc. That way we don't have to hunt through threads to find that one link we thought we saw somewhere :) I hope that's okay. If this isn't the right place I'm sorry, just trying to be helpful :)

 

Here's a list I have come up with thus far:

 

Booking sites:

www.orbitz.com

www.travelocity.com

www.expedia.com

www.hotels.com

www.kayak.com

 

Airlines

Southwest

Spirit

Jetblue

Allegiant

 

 

Convention and Visitor's Authority website

Airport Shuttle Info

 

"Deal" and "Promotional" Sites

Travelzoo

Vegas.com

Groupon Las Vegas Groupon is the coolest site ever, you get daily deals which are often usable for a year and sometimes the deals are AWESOME! I use it in Chicago whenever I can! :)

Lasvegaspromotioncodes.com

Tripres.com

Vegas Coupons

 

I know it's super early to really be hunting for things but since we have over a year sometimes it's not so bad to check sites to get an idea of what kind of deals these sites will give you. I hope you guys will share your sites too and as I come across more, I'll add them. :) I hope that over time this will help even if it's just a few bucks saved. :)

It is also recommended to sign up for each individual hotel's e-mail alerts. One can get some amazing deals that way. I had booked a VERY nice suite at Monte Carlo for this past December. It was something like 5 nights for $275. (This was through one of their e-mail alerts.) Unfortunately, I had to cancel the trip due to scheduling and other conflicts.

Perhaps we could make this topic "sticky" or "pinned" or whatever the term is. It would be very helpful. :) Just a suggestion.

How do the diamond ratings equal to international star qualification? I had the impression, most hotels in Vegas are 5 stars.

They are rather equal... 5 star = 5 diamond / 4 star = 4 diamond etc...

 

But there's a difference between the US and the rest of the world. A 4 star place in the US is most of the time better then a 4 star place in the rest of the world. However, i've seen it otherwise also. A 5 star hotel from the same group that was better in the EU then in the US...

 

In general I have the impression that the rooms are bigger in the US/Canada then for example in the EU.

I can't believe Caesars would be 4 star only. :shocking: It's way better than most 5 star hotel here.

Caesar's is a 4 star hotel according to the Las Vegas bureau of tourism.

OK...

 

If you want to fly in to Vegas and are thinking about leaving less then a week after the premiere of the show you should be able to book airline tickets and hotels.

 

The best prices aren't available yet... For example, a return from Brussels to Las Vegas with United Airlines in economy would cost me 850 USD per person at the moment. Not exactly cheap...

 

But if you really want to buy airline tickets and book a hotel, you can do it from now on ;)
