In Hard Times, You Can Bet on Vegas
"Vegas is a tremendous value right now," says Genevieve Shaw Brown, senior editor at Travelocity. "This is one of the best times in years to visit.
Airlines faced with low passenger capacity are extending airfare sales that usually wrap up in March until at least May, offering fares from $25 to $75 dollars off a round-trip ticket.
Meanwhile, many hotels and resorts battling lower occupancy rates are luring travelers with rooms that cost about 30 percent less than they did a year ago. And the city, which experienced less tourism spending in 2008, is excitedly awaiting more visitors to cash out." Read the rest of the article at CNN.
Would you take a trip to Las Vegas to take advantage of these great deals? Which of the many hotels would you stay in?

Haha that's funny. I live in Las Vegas. :D
I've always liked Vegas, but watching the movie "21" has made me want to go there even more. I hope to go this year. Gotta learn how to play some of them games though. Hopefully I can win me some $$$ ^__^
This is from a CNN article, and I see no credit to them or the original author.
I'd go, but I never want to gamble.
