Richard asks…

Where can I best book flight+hotel in Las Vegas and when is best time to go?

traveling from Vancouver. Never been to Las Vegas before. I will be going with my girlfriend.

traveltalk answers:

The best way to get a great deal is to book them separately. For flights, check sites like Alaska airlines or US Airways. Also do a search on kayak engine. It will check all airlines going to Vegas and all major travel sites and return the cheapest fare. Http://www.lasvegas-how-to.com/cheap-flights.php

For hotels, book directly from the hotels using their discount promo codes to get the maximum discounts. Here are a few codes. Http://www.lasvegas-how-to.com/special.php

As far as the best time, the Fall or Spring is a good time. Summer is usually very hot.

Jemima asks…

Best time to book flight to Las Vegas?

I’m planning to go to Las Vegas the first week of August this year.

What is the best time to book the flight? Should I book it now or wait a little longer?

Like to depart on Sunday and leave for home on Thursday.

Also, which airlines are the major “hub” for Las Vegas?

traveltalk answers:

Well its up to you.

August is not a crazy busy month in Vegas. I would very suprised if those flights filled up. I would wait a little longer, maybe until late June or Early July and then see what the rates.

Statiscally the best time to book a flight ( assuming non-holiday time) is between 3-6 weeks before the trip.

Caroline asks…

When is the best time to book flights?

We are planning on booking multicity flights with Delta for July/August next year for our honeymoon. The flights are out and we know what we want….

Manchester to New York, New York to Bahamas, Bahamas to Las Vegas, Las Vegas to Manchester

At the moment they are around £1800 for both of us, are we better booking now or waiting a while?

traveltalk answers:

These days airlines have already reduced their capacities so are very unlikely to be massively reducing fares.

If you know someone who works in the travel industry and is able to, you can get them to regularly check availability for your flights but if you don’t, the risk you run by not booking sooner rather than later is for one or more legs of your journey to become fully booked. If that happens, then you will be having to re-organise some of your trip.

The fare that you have seems very reasonable to me, my recommendation would be to book it now, it’s a once in a lifetime trip, you don’t want it to be ruined by waiting on the off-chance that you may save a couple of hundred quid at the most.

Jane asks…

Best time to book Vegas trip?

I am going to Vegas for a wedding the beginning of Nov.
Is it true that the best time of month to book travel is mid month to get the best deals on flight and Hotel?
I have been watching it and 2 weeks ago it was $450 and not its int he $600′s (2 weeks ago was mid month)
Should I wait til the middle of July to book?

traveltalk answers:

The time of the month you do you booking does not really influence things. For Vegas, I always book flight and hotel separately. The biggest reason for this is all the fantastic deals you can get directly from the hotel web sites. Book the best deal you can right now, and then keep your eyes peeled for a better deal. When a better deal comes along cancel the old reservation and book the new deal.

The best way to keep track of deals is a site like http://www.vegashotelspecial.com/
