HI, Guys looking to travel from Glasgow on 28th june till 8th july getting quoted prices of £1250-1600 for flight and hotel is this reasonable ? will be travellng alone and i am a vegas virgin.
Could you also recommend a hotel (no resort fees) just to get my head down as im on a budget also any tips for cheap grub booze etc.
Just going to play a couple of tourneys and some cash and experience vegas for the 1st time any advice or tips would be very much appreciated.

Just had a look and flights are running £950, that will get you the BA flight out from Heathrow and is about the best you'll get.
A hotel on the strip is gonna run you £400-500 for the trip*(Quad/Harrahs) both these have resort fees now and the days of no resort fees for strip hotels are mostly gone...
*It's late, so I haven't gone checking everything with promo codes from Smartervegas
That would make your total about that £1550 (at a guess) for the lot. However, I did just find on expedia the same flights and Harrahs for your entire trip for £1370
If you're on a budget I would suggest either of these 2 hotels are ideal, I personally would stay Harrahs if I wanted to play @ Venetian and at Quad if I was going to play Caesars/MGM etc.
That way you won't have any long walks outside daily and don't have to shell out for cabs too often.
The first post has some cheap eats tips, but there are foodcourts everywhere and you can normally find a friendly waitress to get you a drink for a buck or 2
