When traveling from the Houston flatlands to the Las Vegas Valley, you're in for a nice change of scenery and climate. At the Las Vegas McCarran International Airport (LAS) you'll be exposed to the city's famed glitz and glamour, from the moment you step off the plane. You can even throw a few coins in a slot machine on your way out of the terminal.

McCarran International Airport allows you to shop, eat and gamble before you head to your hotel. It's located in a great area of town that offers easy access to the I-215 freeway, so you can hop in your rental car and get your trip started right away.

Key Facts

Whether you're in town on business, on a vacation, there are attractions, shows and parties all over town that cater to everyone's needs. If the bright lights and fast-paced lifestyle of The Strip is too much, you can have fun exploring hidden gems at a variety of other locations around town. Summerlin, Green Valley and Southern Highlands are all different parts of the valley where you can enjoy the Vegas experience without being on The Strip.

Hints and Tips

Your flight from Houston to Las Vegas will be approximately three and a half hours long. Once you get to town, be sure to ask the locals about how to take advantage of some of the best deals.
