Why go now
At $338 per person round trip, this Frontier nonstop is $178 below the highest fare we saw for these dates, a 34% gap. We checked 12 offers, and fares ran from $338 to $516 per person. Add it up for two and you get $676 for flights, $496 for the Horseshoe for 2 nights and $520 for spending, so the whole weekend comes to $1,692. Late October also comes before the busier stretch, with the Formula 1 Las Vegas Grand Prix in November and the National Finals Rodeo in December. The forecast shows 70°F and overcast on Friday, then clear skies on Saturday and Sunday with highs of 75°F and 77°F. That's good weather for walking the Strip at night and driving out to the desert during the day. Prices are all-in as found and can change.
The kind of trip this is
This is a city-and-nightlife weekend: shows, big resort casinos, celebrity-chef restaurants and the neon of the Strip, with Red Rock Canyon and the Hoover Dam just outside town. It suits a group of friends who want a lively couple of nights, or a couple planning dinner and a show. Expect late nights and slow mornings. The early flight lands you with most of Friday still ahead.
