Bump! For Teddy and anyone interested, Thomas Cook are doing a sale that includes direct Manchester - Las Vegas returns from £549, including 23kg luggage allowance and a 3 course meal. Think it's certain dates from May to December. Very good price if you can nab one of the sale leading fares.

If Manchester is not too inconvenient, that Thomas Cook flight is well worthwhile.

It leaves the UK at around 9.30am, & arrives Vegas 12.25pm, which is a few hours earlier than the Virgin & BA Flights.
 
Time it right, & you can be playing a 2pm Deepstack @ Rio, GN or Venetian on the day you arrive.

As Ryan said, never underestimate the value of tipping.

We stayed at the Mirage for a week in September and on the advice of TK hired a car for a couple of days at the hotels car hire desk in reception. The cost of the hire for 2 days was $295 which i thought was a little steep but had nothing to compere it to so agreed the price and off we went, When we returned the keys to the guy at the desk he asked if we wanted to tip him, i looked a little puzzled and he said if you tip me i will look for a better price, so i gave him $20 and he reduced the price to $145

Have a fabulous time!!

I stayed at the Luxor, which was very good, they had 2 daily tournaments $55 but in also they had cash games running all the time. And you get  free drink while you are playing, hotel is cheap during the week , if you get the chance you should go to old Vegas  (Fremont street) where Binions  casino is where the WSOP started  and they run daily cash / tournaments too, but most casinos have poker tournaments running  
to get around you should use the Deuce bus ,which is the cheaper opinion
 also if you get a taxi from the airport to your Hotel Don't take the airport tunnel route as it can put $5 to $10 on the bill

ref shows
we saw  two shows Motown show at the Venetian which was very good
also if you are a certain age the Menopause musical at the Luxor is very funny
you can get cheap tickets at booths along the strip
 also if you want to splash out the grand canyon tour is good we went with  Mavarick tours about £500 for two of you and you land in the Grand Canyon , and you get picked up from your hotel  the tour last about 4 hours
