Reservations in Vegas?
Airline Tickets
Raymus asked:
Hi Everyone. I was hoping someone could help me out. I’m going to Vegas in June. I’ll be coming from Pennsylvania. How far in advance should I book a hotel and flight? I mean should I do it soon or is 2 or 3 months prior to my trip ok? I don’t want to wait and not be able to get a room or flight. Thanks!!

as long as you dont plan on visiting on a holiday weekend, you should be fine. As a precaution I would chec to see if there are going to be any conventions on the weekend / or weekdays you plan to visit. This link should answer all of you questions. Have fun and good luck!

I used to work at the Venetian on the strip, and Binion’s Horseshoe downtown. 4 weeks notice will be fine.

Book your hotel room NOW or as soon as possible, and book your room through the hotel not a travel web site.
It costs you nothing to book now, and you are assured of a good rate no matter what. In LV you never know when they are going to book a major prize fight or some such. Which would drive the room rates through the roof.
You can always keep looking for a better rate, and if/when you find a better rate, cancel the first reservation and make another.
There is absolutely NO advantage in waiting.
Web site for every hotel in Las Vegas
A couple of web sites to compare rates
>Many LV hotels will price match the best rate you can find for their hotel.

6 to 8 Weeks in advance is plenty unless you are hitting a weekend or convention.
Check out Vegas.com for show and hotel deals…

If I were you, I’d start checking prices for flights and rooms regularly (every other week or so) until you find out what a “good” price is. Once you know that then start checking for that good price in February for your vacation in June. I usually book flights when I find a good price - JetBlue from Dulles is frequently $99 each way. I wait to book the rooms until I find the right hotel at the right price. I subscribe to email promotions for my favorite hotels in Vegas and I usually book these deals for myself - Venetian for $139/night, Mandalay Bay for $89/night, NYNY for $89/night etc. These are what I consider to be great rates. If you can be flexible about where you stay then you can always find great prices. Consult a travel agent if you need help booking your hotel - it shouldn’t cost you anything and they’ll be able to find the best rates for you.
One more helpful hint - check Orbitz, travelocity etc and then go to the individual hotel’s website and see what the price difference is. Always book at the hotel’s website if you can because those reservations can be canceled or changed up until 3 or fewer days prior to your arrival.
