Sorry for your bad experience. Without this forum, I would have been unable to make my own plans but everything worked out great by following all the great advice here. Isn%26#39;t it amazing that the experts let you down.

Don%26#39;t give up on Vegas.....next time do your own planning....I found great room rates and great air fares. Takes a little time but worth it.

Do you mind sharing more of your experience? Helps to know what to avoid.

Floridatraveler,

Just curious.. what was wrong with Southwest Airlines?? I fly with them quite frequently and I have never had a problem..I travel between New Orleans- Orlando and New Orleans-Tampa about 7 or 8 times during the year. I even flew to Vegas with them last year and was very enjoyable..For me, they are the cheapest, offer a wide selection of direct flights, and you if need to change flights for whatever reason they don%26#39;t charge you a penalty. I only wish they assigned seats... I am sorry that you had a bad flight...hope your time in Vegas was better...Please share your experience with us...Thanks in advance..

Sorry Luvbichons,

Maybe I%26#39;m just use to a little more class like Jet Blue,Delta,A.airlines.etc.

Thanks Judy,

You made me feal better.

We were there for 6 nites, and spent a lot of money, celebrating our 50th anniversary, playing slots, poker, let it ride, the only place i won was at the flamingo and that was peanuts.

Oh well we visit Biloxie, Miss. often and have a great time. We just had to see vegas, never been there,It was a good experience, and i can say i%26#39;ve been there.

Most people on this forum rave about Southwest Airlines, including me, as long as you understand the drill. However, if you booked with one of their travel pkgs, I%26#39;m not sure how that would work since I always book seperately.

Sorry you had a bad experience.

Wolfie that was my point exactly...never had a problem with Southwest that is why I was curious as to what happened. Now, if as you say are used to a little more class, then Excalibur should not have been your choice. I have never stayed at the Excalibur,but just from some of the reviews and their 3 star rating that would certainly not been my choice for my 50th. (which btw is a looong way off).. Bellagio, C Palace, TheHotel, and Venetian should have been top of your list...Bellagio, C Palace I can say from experience are very nice... I think maybe you didn%26#39;t have the best travel agent at AAA.. It is too bad that such a special event wasn%26#39;t all you planned it to be.... maybe when you go to Biloxi you can celebrate all over again..If you haven%26#39;t stayed at the Beau Rivage yet, I highly recommend it.....Happy Belated Anniversary and hope you have many happier ones to come!!

We have traveled with Southwest for over 10 yrs. now and have gone both vacation pkg. deals and booked everything seperately and never have had a problem with them. My husband also does all of his business travel with them. We went to Vegas over Christmas week and we booked with American Airlines instead of Southwest as they were a little cheaper at the time. NOT GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!! My husband and I both said we will gladly pay the little extra to fly Southwest and get the direct flights. Every flight with American was late. Everytime we fly with Southwest they are on time or early. The only thing I don%26#39;t like about Southwest is that they don%26#39;t have the seating assignments but everything else is good.

I have flown Southwest before and never had a problem. However, when I booked my flight from St. Louis to Vegas, Southwest was over $800 for my wife and I and AA was only $512. I have flown AA a lot when I was working and only had two delays in the last 6 years one was due to a flat tire on a plane and the other was due to weather.

I booked my hotel etc through Southwest vacations and got much better rate than online through the hotel.
