Las Vegas from Spokane, Oct 16–18: $1,567 for two, all in
The verdict
Our verdict
Worth it, if
- Fare of $620 per person, $29 below the typical $649
- Highs of 81–82°F with a 0–1% rain chance
- Excalibur rated 7.7 from 30,748 reviews, $327 for two nights
The catch: The $620 fare has one stop and takes 5h 14m outbound, and resort fees, a checked bag and spending money are not in the total.
Worth it if a one-stop flight is a fair trade for a lower fare on a warm Strip weekend; skip it if you need a nonstop.
Worth it if you don't mind one stop. The whole trip is $1,567 for two: flights at $1,240 plus 2 nights at Excalibur at $327, with taxes and fees included but not resort fees or a checked bag. You leave Friday, Oct 16, and come back Sunday, Oct 18, 2026, on Alaska with one stop, out of Spokane at 10:10 AM and into Las Vegas at 3:24 PM.

Why now
At $620 per person, the Alaska fare is $29 below the typical $649 on this route, about 4% less. It's also the lowest we've seen in 30 days of checks. For two, that's $1,240 in flights. Add Excalibur at $327 for 2 nights and the trip comes to $1,567, all in, as of when we checked. Mid-October works well for the desert too. The forecast shows highs of 81°F to 82°F, lows of 63°F to 72°F and a rain chance of 0% to 1%. That's warm enough for an afternoon at the pool and mild enough to walk the Strip after dark. The November Grand Prix weekend and the December rodeo and New Year's crowds are still weeks away. Prices move, so this is what we found, not a promise.
The kind of trip this is
This is a city-and-nightlife weekend: shows, casino floors, big dinners and the neon of the Strip, with the desert right outside if you want a morning among red rocks. It suits a couple or two friends who want to fit a lot into 2 nights. You set the pace: late nights are optional and pool time is encouraged.
