I'll be flying into LAS for the first time and I will have the whole family (along with luggage and car seats) with me. My usual plan in this situation is to leave the family at the terminal, hop on the car rental shuttle with the car seats as my only luggage, and then come back to the terminal to pick everyone up after taking care of all the paperwork and installing the car seats in the rented van. At the end of the rental period, I take the same steps in reverse order. As we expect to land at LAS in the evening (~ 9 PM) and I've never been at this airport, I'm looking for suggestions of pl ..read more

We are in Vegas for a week, our first trip here in ~ 5 years. We have been coming to Vegas nearly annually since the 1980s and wanted to pay our respects to the Tropicana.

It looks like the body scan will be using mmw instead of the regular precheck metal detectors, which will concern some. I think this will also take longer per person ..read more
