Vegas Trip Information for anyone looking to go this year.

Upstairs well worth a look.  I'm 6ft 4 and upstairs back row is great - can recline chair without worrying about people behind plus it's quite nice and small up there, with not many seats.  Booked our seats for £25 each as they're not exit ones.

Booked now via Expedia.
At£45 per seat exit seats are well worth it mate

When I go onto the Virgin Website it asks me to pick my seats. Do I need to pay for these?

Just wondering.

Although the new seat layout / refurbished jets seem to have a bit more space for those of us under 6 foot tall !!

That's me screwed.  I'm 6'3.
I can book the very back seats (Row 64 Seats H and K) which are a two instead of a 3.
This is $160 return on the Virgin flight.  Is this decent Value.  

Probably only you can answer that. I'm well under 6ft so don't have these worries. Virgin let you pick your own seats for free within 30 days of flights, though this often opens up before the 30 days. Those double seats at the back go very quickly though, so for you it may be worthwhile paying for them.
Only caveat, again personal preference, is sitting at the back can mean 2 hours getting through immigration.

Also, if seats are still available, these upstairs get off before premium and economy, so much quicker through immigration.

This doesn't get you to Vegas, but it gets you close and is very cheap various early summer dates, but only 300 seats at this price (or on sale until 8th)

Yes upstairs is good
You are some of the first off the plane
 plus slightly better service as well
I've had those back seats they are a little roomier
Worth paying a bit extra
I was pleased to get exit seats in economy for £45 per person

Probably, lol. If I go with family mrs basically takes my Son and just stands by the line they use for family/assistance etc, even if it isn't open. They soon take the hint.

Hi folks. Thanks for the information on page 1 Marky. I have literally just made a last decision to go next week for 10 days, the flight is relatively cheap at £450 but the hotels seem to be really expensive. I imagine this is down to me leaving it til really late but £70 per night seems to be the cheapest i can find. Any ideas if i am likely to find it cheaper anywhere not listed? Thanks in advance

[Marky147]

Glad it's been useful, mate.

I'm just off to the gym now, but can have a scratch about for you when I get back.

Just chuck the exact dates up, and I'll spend 1/2 hour seeing if there is anything about.

Usually conferences are to blame, and I think one of the lad posted a site that lists these, a few pages back.

[L3goH3ad]

Thanks very much, that'd be really helpful! These dates don't have to be exact but ... Monday 18th April (this time next week!) until the 27th/28th. Thanks again.
