Let me know how it goes, would be very interested to hear your opinions. Kids/parents two beds one room, might get a little strained.

Well we have tried various options with charter travel and it still looks like a no go, so we may do Las Vegas at easter on its own and fly from Man, this was a stumbling block with the New york unless we went to Heathrow, which I will not do, at least we can go direct to Vegas.

Would have done the drive if it was only the two of us but not with a 10 year old.

Will have to keep on looking or maybe try something diferent.

We didn't want to fly into Orlando but into Fort Myers so we could stay on the gulf coast for a change

We've been looking at maybe going to LV at Easter break with the kids. Just done San Francisco.

After looking at the best of whatever??? on the Travel programmes on Sky it says that the Mandalay Bay comes out on TOP, has anyone been here, good or bad comments or would you still suggest Caesers Palace and that.

I stayed at the Four Seasons Mandalay Bay in April this year. It is a fantastic hotel with its own private pool and service (not even available to Mandalay Bay guests). However, if you want to be central to all attractions The Bellagios location couldn't be better.

We are off to Vegas next Monday!!

We have rented a villa, apparently over 5000 sq ft! I think we will all probably lose each other in the villa. We stayed in another villa last November and it was fantastic. Have stayed in Mandalay Bay and Luxor and my son and his fiancee stayed in Excalibur. All really good hotels, although I did prefer Mandalay Bay to Luxor but hubby preferred the Luxor prices!!!![msnsmile2]
Seeing the picture of the Bellagio waters on here makes me very impatient to get back there. We love it so much but not quite as much as Florida![msnwink]

Where is the problem? You can get to Las Vegas with 1 stop from Manchester with a number of airlines and arrive (their time) around 5.00 pm. From there you can fly to Fort Myers with another stop and the same home via New York. I did a similar trip a couple of months ago.

Hve you tried going to Expedia and entering your route under multi-trip? It will give you several options.

Incidentally, there is no direct UK-Fort Myers service so you will have to take at least 1 stop to get there and many of the routings require more stops and even an overnight.

I have flown to Fort Myers many times and on many routes (I'm doing so later this week). If you want to DM me I'll let you know the best options.

I have only ever been to LV once on the Concorde during a round the world trip, its an amazing place[msnwink]

I love Las Vegas (nearly as much as Florida [msnwink])

My pick of hotels would be The Bellagio - but there are so many great ones to chose from, I'd like to go enough times to stay in nearly all of them!!

Francine - I'd be interested to know who you have rented your villa through?
