Would a muslim ever travel to Las Vegas ?
I would imagine that to a religious muslim, Vegas would be hell on earth. Gambling, drinking, scantly clad women. Everything fun in life that they are forbidden to enjoy.

Wow... I just remembered my last trip to the Spearmint Rhino... It was AWESOME!
Answer 2 :
Yes, they do it all the time. Rich muslim men are big hypocrites.
Answer 3 :
Oh, I come from a Muslim family and my parents took us all on a family trip to Vegas once. It was probably around 10 years ago or so.
Answer 4 :
yes i have muslim friends that have gone to Las Vegas
Answer 5 :
That probably explains why I never see Muslims around.
Answer 6 :
I would, actually you are wrong, cause we are not forbidded to enjoy, we are allowed to enjoy as much as we want to but have to remember and thank god and be grateful unlike you guys, just jump off there and forget about the whole world even Jesus Christ. But Drinking and Gambling is forbidden, cause gambling is just waste of time and plus drinking is bad for your health. Did'nt your health teacher teach you something about alchol,beer,lol? Seriously think before you post question. Your question wasnt very funny and it made me look so rude.

Airplane for sure. It's like 6 days travel on ground. Check an airline's webpage for the price.

Answer 4 :
Amtrak does not go to Las Vegas. Your only option is taking a plane. http://www.lasvegas-how-to.com/cheap-flights.php
Answer 5 :
Amtrak discontinued service to Las Vegas in 1997. The two largest cities in America without train service are Las Vegas and Phoenix. The three Amtrak stops closest to Las Vegas going east to West are (1) Kingman, AZ (2) Needles CA, and (3) Barstow CA. Each of these stops is roughly 2.5 hour drive from Las Vegas and car rental is very expensive in these cities. ----------------------------- Although enthusiasts might disagree with my stark assessment, the only long distance train trip that is worth taking in America is Chicago to Seattle with it's incredible views of the Rocky Mountains.

When I was in Las Vegas, I wanted to take one of the short flights over to the Grand Canyon, but I ran out of time. drats !
Answer 2 :
Ash Meadows National Wildlife Refuge Beaver Dam State Park Big Bend Of The Colorado State Recreation Area Bryce Canyon National Park Cathedral Gorge State Park Death Valley National Monument Echo Canyon State Park Grand Canyon National Park (is a little far from Vegas, but still under 7 hours)
Answer 3 :
Valley of Fire State Park, north of LV less then two hours away.
Answer 4 :
I have lived in Las Vegas for 14 years and I love nature too! I would definatly recommend visiting Red Rock Canyon, which is about 30 minutes out of Las Vegas. It is a national park where you can usually see burros, sometimes mountain goats, and I have seen wild mustangs there. We have the Valley of Fire close by but it is really hot this time of year. (hence the name!) and not to much for the wildlife scene. I think that you would absolutely love Bryce Canyon, it is beautiful and there is an abundance of wildlife up there. It is also a lot cooler than here around Las Vegas. A 7 hour drive can lead you to San Diego which is about 5 hours away where you can whale watch, or even visit the San Diego Zoo. San Diego also has great parks and beaches. There are many wonderful places to visit within a 7 hour radius. I would highly recommend the Grand Canyon if you have never been before. Summer months are busy (full of tourists) It is sometmes hard to find the canyone amongst the tourists!!! But if you can go in the spring or early fall before the snow hits or after it melts it is beautiful and serene.
Answer 5 :
Red Rock Canyon & the Hoover Dam. You could also do the Grand Canyon trip

Answer 1 :
$3.00002
Answer 2 :
Go to Expedia.com and check out the packages they offer. They will set up the hotel and flight for you and save you money. I got a week in Vegas for two from Tennessee including flights for $1,300 staying at TI. Here are some tips I have discovered: - Stay in a nice central location where you can easily get to other casinos. - Stay somewhere cheap to medium priced on your budget. Save some money to gamble! - Try to head out on Sunday and return Thursday night. Everything gets way more expensive and busy at the weekend. - Read the online reviews about the hotel you like. - Experiment with dates. You will find that there are some weeks in every month that are cheaper than others. These casinos have the room pricing down to a fine art. They charge more when they can and less when they are slow. I would look around the 20th if I were you, since the World Series Of Poker will be going on from now until the middle of August. This is sure to push hotel prices up. Good luck!
Answer 3 :
I recommend Expedia as well. It is simple and in a matter of minutes you can check how much it would cost. It compares the costs between many airlines and can even find you some hotel/car rental packages. or you can play FREE online. But you must visit Las Vegas. It's a great experience. Even just walking around to all the casinos for free is amazing.

Cheapest way to travel to Las Vegas from Los Angeles?
I have seen some pretty cheap deals for flying from Los Angeles to Las Vegas ($119 / £74) - I dont know though is it worth hiring a car and driving there and back or does it cost a lot for petrol in the USA and toll charges and then so it would owrk out cheaper to fly than drive?
Los Angeles - 6 Answers
People's Answers, Critics, Comments, Opinions :
Answer 1 :
$119 is not a bad deal at all. Hiring (here we call it renting) a car might be more or less expensive, depending on the model of car. Figure $30-$50 per day for a compact to mid-size car. Petrol/gasoline (or just "gas") is currently $3 per gallon or so, roughly $.75 per liter. I hear you Brits pay quite a bit more over there. But figure about $80-$90 in gas costs alone. So $119 isn't so bad at all. Oh yeah, there are no toll roads between LA and Vegas. The tax on gasoline funds the interstate highway system.
Answer 2 :
Well ... when you consider that time is money, it might well be better all around to fly over and back, especially if you're traveling anytime between now and October because of the beastly, oppressive, will-to-live sucking H E A T. The temperature in Las Vegas and the surrounding desert area (which extends all the way to California, which means that you'll encounter these temperatures about an hour outside of LA while on the drive) is a high of 103 F (approx 40 or thereabouts C) with an overnight low of 86 F (approx 34 C or so). I've been there in the month of August when it was 105 F at 2am, so just know that it does not cool off at night. Heaven forbid but if the car breaks down on your drive, you would be stranded in heat that's dangerously high. When you factor in the time it would take to make the drive, which averages around 5 hours, I would just as soon fly as drive. It's a quick 45 minute hop (once you get past the check in line etc, but still!!), and you're there. If you like, you could rent a car in Vegas, although their public transport has gone through some MAJOR improvements with the monorail system that takes you from one end of the strip to the other in 15 minutes. A day pass for the monorail is just $12, which is cab fare for one ride from the Stratosphere to the Luxor. The monorail is definitely the way to go, especially in the daytime when it's so bleedin' hot. If you've got a flight for $119, I'd take it and call myself happy :D
Answer 3 :
Fly, some flights like on Southwest Airlines can go as little as $35 per person, one way. Gas (petrol) isn't as expensive as Great Britain, in fact it's a lot less expensive, and since you're a visitor it would probably be wise to rent a car and drive through the desert and see the scenery. There are no toll charges along the way. Besides you may want to end up renting a car anyways to drive out to Hoover Dam, Laughlin, etc etc. You'll need a car in Vegas anyway. Good luck ducks!
Answer 4 :
No doubt there no other alternative to Flight travel, But it will gonna cost you for that comfort. So if you want to save some money then renting a car will be a good option for you. Here http://www.AustraliaRentCar.com you can get a good detail of car rental and its different charges. as you can see it is a local site for Australia but is also provides global search. so you can search about you location also.
Answer 5 :
You could try the Greyhound bus (see www.greyhound.com to get fare and schedule information), but that will be about an 8-hour ride each way with stops.
Answer 6 :
You can also try Luxbus: http://www.luxbusamerica.com/index.php If you want to drive yourself, it will probably be cheaper than driving if you have several people in your group. It also depends on how many days you are staying.

Why is it that when I travel to Las Vegas and stay in one of those grand hotels, is there ALWAYS Static Shock?
First of all, why is there always static electricy in Las Vegas? LIke when i'm pushing the elevator buttons, or just opening the door to my room, I'm always scared that I will get a shock. WHy does this happen, and is there a way to preven it?
Other - Science - 5 Answers
People's Answers, Critics, Comments, Opinions :
Answer 1 :
The "processed" atmosphere of hotels substantially reduces the humidity (amount of water in the air). The higher the dryness of the air, the higher the occurrence of static electricity.
Answer 2 :
Static shock often occurs because you drag your feet on the carpet, socks or shoes, and electrons either escape or join onto your body giving you a charge. When this charge is released... you get shocked, well the charge travels from you to the object, because you have have a charge and the other object may or may not... repulsion, attraction,... To reduce your 'shockage' try not to drag your feet...
Answer 3 :
Lack of humidity helps to transmit static shock. The lack of humidity has nothing to do with "processed" hotel air, but the fact that Las Vegas is in the middle of a DESERT. I used to live in Phoenix, a city notoriously in the middle of a dry, arid, humidity-less, DESERT, and I used to get shocked all the time walking around just about any where. Unfortunately I never found a way to stop it.
Answer 4 :
Static is more likely to build up and discharge in dry conditions, and surprisingly if you wear rubber soled shoes. Touching something that is likely to give you a shock with a metal object such as a coin or key first will prevent you from getting shocked.
Answer 5 :
Dry air plus synthetics equals static. There really isn't a cure. Try to wear cottons or use an anti-static such as static guard. They'll help some. To avoid shocks from touching things, try to use a pencil, key, or other object to touch things first. It will drain off some of the charge and if there is a discharge, it won't be directly on your skin. If you are wearing rubber soled shoes, such as running shoes, don't scuff them on the carpet. This raises a ton of static.

I didn't think we had any B&Bs here. It can be quiet at some hotels off the Strip and Downtown. If you've never been here, then stay at the Strip first. A hotel will be just fine. Stay the weekday too, it's less crowded.

There's a Bed and Breakfast in Vegas? Maybe Mt. Charleston. That's a couple of miles out of Vegas.

hotel, is better off try mgm is bery nice or try mgm signature its new

Not many B&B's in Vegas that I know of and I've been here for 10 years. There are some nice off strip hotels that offer you amazing things (like plasma TV's, separate living rooms and kitchens, balcolnies, etc) for the same price as a regular room downtown.
Answer 10 :
If you want quiet and away from people the definetly do a Bed and Breakfast or a small hotel that doesn't have the casino scene. There is just too much noise, comotion, smoke, etc. in the bigh casino hotels.
Answer 11 :
Vegas does not have any B&B, you can stay at any one of the exclusive hotel on The Strip.

Answer 3 :

Answer 4 :
Yep, he is right. One time when i was living in L.A. we took off in the night and there were tons of people on the road. Once in Vegas all hotels were booked. We found out there was a grateful dead concert in town. People loved to follow them when they were around especially in Cali. ha ha At any rate with it being New Year's Eve there is going to be traffic galore! First of all your going to have the wonderful rush hour traffic that is like any other in the nation that you do NOT want to or need to see. This goes on in the morning regardless if there is a holiday or not. You sit for a minimum of 2 hours if your lucky. If you wait until afternoon then you would not get to Vegas until evening and then it will be rush hour in Vegas and the traffic there is a bizz natch too. Went through there recently. Nightmare and we weren't even near the casinos. If you leave at a late hour you can relatively breeze through the desert and not have to worry about stop and go and make it in the time you are supposed to. I would still plan on hitting holiday traffic even at that hour simply because of all the action that will be going on and people are going to be thinking the same thing. Truck drivers are usually dramatic for a reason. *edit* just realized you are going opposite direction. However, what i said still stands. It is the same either way you go because San Diego will be partying too. ha ha
Answer 5 :
From Las Vegas to San Diego has always been an easy trip for us. Leaving on a Mon thru Thurs, we have breakfast at our hotel and leave Vegas around 10am. Never have had really bad traffic. It's going the other way that we have to be more careful.

Well, flights tend to be cheaper Oct and Nov but you definitely have to book early. http://www.lasvegas-how-to.com/cheap-flights.html As far as hotels are concerned, you can get discount hotel rooms all year round.

Interesting. Most people have been saying November. While I saw some really good deals in late November, I also saw $27 for Binion's on weekday nights in August. August is an extremely hot time of the year, so you can usually find decent deals, especially downtown.
Answer 9 :
Book your flight and hotel as soon as you can. A few weeks before you leave double check the prices of the hotel and flight and if it goes down call to get some money back.
