Letter: Las Vegas trip too expensive

Fri, Oct 18, 2002 (9:28 a.m.)

This week on CNN it was reported that there was a decline in visitors to Las Vegas.

I can give you a very good reason why that's the case. I am from Michigan, and the price of airline tickets is so outrageous anymore that it is just not feasible to visit there as often. Even the charters have increased their prices.

We love it in Vegas. My husband and I used to visit two or three times a year. Not anymore. Everything is relevant and that includes the cost of airline tickets when it comes to entertainment. But until that cost comes down, we will take our money and visit the casinos in Detroit and Canada.
