No limit on what you can take, but it being less than 10k in dollar will make your life easier (this includes dollars and $ TC's i think) I always like to have my currency sorted, and I also like the safety of the TC's - a combination of those plaus a debit/credit card would be my choice.

Which airline are you flying with?

If you have over $10k you are supposed to declare it at the airport.


Make sure you sign up to a frequent flyer programme - a trip to vegas is worth a decent amount of air miles!

You could either join the American Airlines one or British Airways (or any other memer of 'One World')
