Shame I'm not going this year, because it looks like a good mixture of comps... Guess one of my Cheltenham accas had better win

They have one around Easter time, prices usually good then too. Virgin prices have been a lot higher generally this year though

This is the first year InThe last ten when I'm not booked yet Looking at virgin there are few Miles n money deals Hotel n flight pkgs on other providers are £1250-£1500 as far as I can tell for 7-9 nights previously I've paid £1200 for 2 weeks Just have to keep looking and hope there's a virgin sale personally tho I doubt they will offer much on vegas flights when they seem to be selling well Any deals I will put up if I see them if others do the same it would be appreciated ??

I was in this position last year around this time of year. Everything was expensive and it didn't look like there would be a sale. There was one in the middle of April. I just looked and I booked on the 18th April last year.

If you're going after June 21st, that's not too bad.

That's a complete miles fare, so that's part of the reason, and it's January... The one you posted is using hardly any miles, so not really comparable. If you want to go to Vegas at the height of summer, they're going to have the most expensive flights, and at least you won't have to go to the cardroom for internet if you stay at the Nugget again  Resort fees have been in Vegas for years now, but the 4 Queens doesn't charge them

I booked a couple of weeks ago so not much use for me, but premium economy and upper are very reasonable right now  I am going 10th to 17th and could have gone both ways in upper for 2k. I paid about 1.2k for economy out, premium economy back. Think I could probably do PE both ways for much the same price today. Don't think Economy has moved much.

Most of the bets placed so far seem more like hopeful punts rather than value spots
