The catch: The best-value hotel is rated 7.8; a better one costs more.
Worth it if you want late nights and a crowd; skip it if you want to sleep.

Why now
At $432 per person round trip, this fare is $17 under the typical $449, the median of 7 earlier checks on this route, or 4% less. That's $864 for two, taxes and fees included, as we found it on Oct 13. Prices move, so there's no promise it holds. The flight is nonstop on Frontier, 1h 54m, leaving El Paso at 8:19 PM on Friday and landing at 9:13 PM local time, so you can put in a workday and still catch a late dinner on the Strip. The forecast is clear all three days, with highs of 79–82°F, lows of 69–72°F and a rain chance of 5% or less. That's pool weather in the afternoon and a comfortable walk at night. It's a good fit for a show, the fountains and a drive out to the desert.
The kind of trip this is
This is a city-and-nightlife getaway with a desert edge: big resorts, restaurants, shows and pool time, plus red-rock scenery a short drive out. It suits couples or a group of friends who want a quick, social weekend without a long trip. The pace is late nights and slow mornings, and you can swap one afternoon for a scenic drive if the casino floor wears thin.
