Summer Tourism in Las Vegas
By Stephen Roberts | April 30, 2010
There has been an increase in demand for Las Vegas vacations lately, bumping up hotel room prices and airfares for summer travel. Though travelers may not like the bump in prices, Las Vegas is still well positioned to take advantage of the high demand of travelers this summer. Travelocity.com reported that the average hotel room price in the U.S. would go for $144 a night. The average price for a hotel room in Las Vegas is considerably less at $100 a night. Though Las Vegas has recently fallen behind Orlando for the top tourism city in the country, Las Vegas still has a lot to offer for potential tourists. MGM’s new CityCenter development has drawn up a lot of curiosity from tourists and will help increase the number of tourists that visit CityCenter this summer. Las Vegas also has the advantage of having a wide variety of attractions that appeal to different markets as well as varied hotel prices for different demographics.
The best value about Las Vegas vacations this summer is the packages. The spa packages, golf packages, entertainment packages, etc. are all at great rates. Las Vegas also has the benefit of having lower than average air-fairs when you compare to other tourism cities in the country. The national average air-fare for round trips is $471. Las Vegas sits significantly lower at $398, giving Las Vegas a great advantage when tourists are picking the best value for where they want to travel. Hopefully this summer we will begin to see Las Vegas climb out of the recession and lower the unemployment rate due to high demands for tourism.
