***Update as of Tuesday, May 2 at 9:49 p.m.: The package is currently available starting at $323 for the Rio All Suite Hotel & Casino a week later departing on June 6.
Revellers, gamblers, shoppers, and sun-seekers flock to this international party mecca year-round to enjoy its expansive offerings.
And for residents of the Lower Mainland, a ticket to the "City of Sin" offers one of the best deals for a brief getaway outside of the Great White North...for now.
The federal government recently green-lighted WestJet's acquisition of Sunwing Airlines, which means Sunwing's ultra-low-cost hotel and accommodation packages might soon be a thing of the past. Experts say , although its effects likely won't be felt evenly across Canada.
For now, however, Sunwing Vacations packages with direct flights and hotel to Las Vegas from Vancouver cost less than the price of a return airfare to New York.
Travellers can take advantage of deals starting at just over $300 this spring. For example, a package for two travellers that includes a flight departing Vancouver International Airport (YVR) on Tuesday, May 30, and returning from Harry Reid International Airport (LAS) on Friday, June 2, and includes a three-night stay at the 4-star Rio All Suite Hotel & Casino, works out to $309 including all taxes and fees per person.
Travellers looking for fancier accommodations can opt for a stay at the four-and-a-half-start Mirage Resort and Casino or admire views of Vegas' own Eiffel Tower replica outside of the Paris Las Vegas resort.
For another luxurious option, a three-night stay at the five-star Mandalay Bay Hotel & Casino is a steal at $536 per person in the Resort King room category.
The property is unique because it has real sand and a wave pool for guests to enjoy on the 11-acre property.
Vancouver flights to Las Vegas
A trip to Las Vegas can include all of the usual suspects -- gambling, impressive shows, pool parties, and big-name DJ concerts — but there are a plethora of other activities and attractions to enjoy in the city or just outside of it.
Visitors who venture outside of the entertainment zone can take a nostalgic trip down memory lane with a visit to Old Vegas or a day trip to see the Grand Canyon.
