    There are no direct flights between Manchester and Las Vegas on a Saturday.
    I am flying out on Friday 11th and coming back Sunday 20th. Both direct to and from Manchester, cost £1160 with Virgin.

    I believe that only £1000 was provided by sky for the flights. I'm really sorry that you have been left out of pocket like this.

    You can get hotels alot cheaper than £300 if you look about, you could always try a full night playing poker and then just sleep on the plane coming home lol

    The flights could have been less than £1k if you don't fly direct :)

    Make some jokes with the Customs & Border Protection guys about bringing drugs in, they love that sort of banter.

    Definitely if colonic irrigation is your thing.

    Unless you're loaded don't buy drinks at the bar on the strip, put $20 in poker machine at the bar, push the button every now and again, the barman will keep giving you drinks, just tip a dollar or play the slots noting which aisle the cocktail waitresses are using most and sit at a slot machine in that aisle ordering a drink every time they pass you. Don't forget to tip $1 is fine, or if you fancy a good drink tip her £10, she won't pass you again without putting a drink in your hand lol
