Trump is really far, walking distance wise, and it's not directly on las vegas blvd, so have to walk a distance to take the bus

Do you save a lot on vegas trips using Priceline bid or whatever? I mean flights/hotel are pretty reasonable now so I would probably prefer to book the hotel i want. rather than random

depends what you buy...at Tao, a bottle of basic rum was $350
if you have girls with you, then you can show up to clubs arouns 10 and you'll get in ok
if you are a bunch of guys, bottle service or show up at like 9:30

Hey guys need a little help,
Im planning to go late November for 4 nights and this is what I got so far
$302 flying with Allegiant Air for 2 people. ($58 each way / person)
Trip Price = $232.00
Taxes & Fees = $70.40
Total Cost $302.40
Staying at MGM
1 Grand Tower Room 4 nights $260.00
Taxes: $31.20
Total: $291.20 USD
So my airfair and stay will cost about $622.
My questions are, does anybody know if it's possible to fly from Vancouver for about the same price? I mean I gotta pay for gas and pay for parking for 5 days. Anybody know where's a good place to check?
Another question is, I want to watch a couple of shows, where would I be able to find good prices for shows? I would really like to watch Blue Man Group and a Cirque Du Soleil (I have already seen "O", I heard Ka is really good).

Here are the few I've stayed at in the past:
Venetian --> pricey, beautiful, newer and different from the the other hotels. Great classy place to go with wife/gf. Room was larger than the average rooms at Wynn or Caesars and had 3 tvs.
Wynn --> pricest of the three and it was alright; new
Caesars --> nice place; same category as Venetian but prefer Venetian
The crowd is good at all three but the XS club at Wynn and Tao at Venetian were awesome. Make sure u go2 Tao  haha
Flew out of Bellingham all times(Allegiant airlines); no problems and cheap! Direct flights

That's why is cheaper.
I just did my Las Vegas plan for this coming late Sep.
$1100 CAD tax is the cheapest I found.
2 persons 5 weekdays stay in NYNY
try westjetvacatons.com, usairwaysvacations.com, aircanadavacations.com & check out their air & hotel package for comparsion
it is impossible to get a price as low as Allegiant airlines
since they are flying US domestic
