come on guys, im not going to spoon feed you on how to look for deals, I already told you where and how to get it.
PACKAGE:
$566.53
FED EXCISE TAX:
$15.64
SEGMENT FEES:
$15.20
PFC:
$18.00
SEPT 11 SECURITY FEE:
$10.00
PREPAID BAGS:
$39.98
SEAT SELECTION FEE:
$44.00
CARRIER USAGE CHARGE:
$40.00
TOTAL:
$749.35
PAYMENT:
(MC 7226) $749.35
5 days 4 nights, with 1 checked bag.
we could have saved another 44 bucks if we didnt chose our seats, but it would really suck if we didnt sit together.
in essence if we didnt check a bag or select our seating,
it would have been 330$ per person

Honestly I think its worth a little bit extra to fly direct at YVR to Vegas
for about $100 save yourself the hassle.
BTW when I flew westjet I didn't get charged for any baggage

My fiance and I always flew Westjet directly from YVR to LAS, way more relax and never charged for first baggage. Good customer service, always cracked some jokes on intercom wishing everyone good luck at casino and overall trip.
Look for vacation deals on their site, and oftentimes Westjet offers booklets with savings/coupons that might help out with restaurants and shopping. And depending on which hotel you book, Westjet throws in some deals where the hotel with give extra 10% with stay. And they offer free shuttle bus from LAS to your hotel...and return back.

If you are in a rush do not take the shuttle bus to airport hotel vica versa
cab is about $12-15 and takes like 10 mins
vs shuttle 1 hour + because they stop at every hotel

Indoors is fine of course. But when we were outside, holy damn it was bad.
I think it was around 43 when I was there.
