Tourism
For the latest Las Vegas tourism news and stats let the Las Vegas Review-Journal be your top source.
Some properties are charging three times as much for a room the night of Dec. 7 compared with just two weeks later on Dec. 21.
The new three-times-per-week flights launched Sunday, with the maiden flight from Frankfurt Airport arriving to McCarran International Airport to a ceremonial water arch.
July marked only the second time in McCarran’s history that 4.5 million people passed through the airport.
The discount air carrier will begin flights in mid-November, and offer introductory fares as low as $15 on some flights.
