If everything in Vegas were three times more expensive right now, would you still go?

    For us....that would probably price us out. Paying anything for rooms and food being 3x more expensive....with airfares being much higher these days.....sadly, considering our gambling budget as a "cost", we could go & see new places but may not have as much fun. LV is our happy place & it would break my heart if I had to forgo our trips....but... ):

    No. All the non-gaming activities in Vegas can be done elsewhere. I was amazed at how many of the same attractions I could find in Orlando. And gaming is spreading everywhere. No it's not the same as Vegas but if gambling is your focus, you can get your fix without going all the way to Vegas. If the hotels even doubled in price, it would make cities people believed to be too expensive reasonable and probably more enjoyable because there won't be as many customers to serve meaning a better service experience. I think it would take a lot less than of prices to get people to quit Vegas. And I can see a desire to inflate the prices more than the national average because almost every casino company has a lot of debt to deal with.

    Yes. There is not any place like LV.
