Don't think anyone has picked up on this yet, but Maxjet are having a sale on flights to Las Vegas.
Claire and I are flying out on the 4th June - Virgin Atlantic price for cattle class return was £548 - Premium Economy price £1,159
Maxjet price for Business Class, 102 seater plane, 3 course meal, fly from Stansted etc is £598
Their sale ends on March 5th for any flights before September.
www.maxjet.com
(as corrected by Moskvich (TY))
If you found this useful, ping it back up so others will see it....

I saw something in the Sunday paper about an all Buisness class airline (same idea, 100 seats on the plane, 3 course bit of scran) doing return flights to Vegas from London from £577 per person. (Fares based on 2 or more people travelling together.)
Called themselves Americana Vacations PLC. Might be worth a look too.
Might be the same planes, and this is just another booking agent. Worth shopping about.

A key phrase to note may well be 'Seasonal flight supplements will apply' - I doubt these prices are adjusted downwards.

You might want to do a bit of research into MaxJet before making up your mind... I've read some fairly uncomplimentary things about them.
Basically they don't have any spare aircraft... if any thing goes wrong flights get cancelled - not delayed... with only a couple of flights per week, this can be a real disaster!
Some comments here -

As always... Caveat Emptor.

There's a wee club on Freemont Street that pays for my flight.

Will be interested to hear your review on the seats and service. Are they flat bed seats or the old business class style?
