Mobile Should I book or wait? Help please

Hi all
I'm planing a Vegas holiday for July next year and have the following price

Return flights 2/7-12/7
The mirage 2/7-6/7
Car hire 6/7-10/7
Excalibur 10/7-12/7

All this for roughly £625 each

Not sure whether to book or hold off for now I don't really know what a good price is for Vegas?

Thank you

That’s good I’d book, we do Vegas every year. I’d definitely be happy with that price. Though to be honest we never take a car if just doing Vegas.

Headline price looks good assuming it's for two travellers? If it's three or four it's not so good.

Are the flights direct, indirect, from where? Does the car hire include insurance? That will also bump up price if not.

I wouldn't personally want to start at the Mirage at end at Excalibur, that would feel like a downgrade at the end.

Remember you'll have resort fees on top, too (unless your deal includes them).

Are you sleeping in the car from the 6th to the 10th?

Good price though!

We are going on a 4 day trip to Grand Canyon, Page, Bryce Canyon and Zion. The hotels for this trip will be £150 each on top of that.

The price is per person for 2 people. Flights to Vegas have a 2 hour stopover in Dallas but flights home are direct.

Not sure about car insurance will have to enquire.
I'm assuming it doesn't include resort fees this is booking through BA but i have factored this in as an expense.

Might look at other options rather than Excalibur


Thank you

Unfortunately prices change quickly. The only way to do it is to have all your ducks in a row so you can pull the trigger as soon as something good comes up because if you wait, well, this happens

Hope you find something else soon.

how are you booking the hotel ?

If you are booking directly through the hotels website if you see the rate drop call the hotel and in most instances they will drop your rate
