Airport Hotels Las Vegas
(McCarran International Airport Las vegas)
McCarran International Airport Las vegas (LAS)
McCarran International Airport (IATA: LAS) is served
by many domestic and international air carriers. Southwest
Airlines and USAirways have hubs at LAS. The cost
at the airport to rent a luggage trolley/cart is $3.
Hotels owned by MGM Grand (MGM Grand, and New York New York)
and Harrah's Entertainment (Rio, Harrah's, Bally's, Paris,
Caesars Palace, and Flamingo) allow you to check in at the
hotel and transfer luggage between the hotel and the airport.
When leaving Las Vegas, the 'curbside check-in' counters
will save a wait, but cost you $4 + tip, and you won't be
allocated a seat number until boarding time (i.e. likely to
be the least-desirable seat).
To travel between the airport and your hotel:
* Taxis cost $10-$20. The taxi line is well organized as
the city taxi dispatcher will direct you to a numbered space
along the curb. You need not tip the taxi dispatcher. As in
any city, you can be taken advantage of if the taxi driver
thinks you are naive or new to the city. Do not allow the
taxi driver to take you through the I-15 tunnel (an extra
$10) or tell you the story about the "big accident"
enroute to your hotel, if either of these happens take down
the driver's hack license number and call the Nevada Taxi
Cab Authority.
* CAT Bus #108 costs $2 each way and departs every 20-30
minutes from Ground Level Zero (take the escalator down from
the baggage claim and walk towards the parking garage; the
covered bus stop is on the right). The bus travels along Paradise
Road to the Convention Center and the LV Hilton, taking about
20-25 minutes. At the intersection of Paradise Road and the
Strip (Las Vegas Boulevard), you can switch to the Deuce shuttle
bus, traveling north to downtown or south to other hotel casinos.
* Shuttle Buses will take you to any hotel on the Strip
or downtown for $6.
* Limousines cost ~$35.
