    First one over New Year's, second one in May. Probably 1 or 2 more will be booked later.

    Won't be as many as this year (7) but barring any life changes I would expect 3-4. Generally will go in Feb/March to blow the tax refund, always go in April for my birthday, usually at least one trip in the summer then always, always Xmas.

    Too many! Really, is there ever a too many!? Right now, January, February, May and July. We’ll go in the Fall, either September or October but we haven’t thought that far.....then I will go sometime in the summer with my high school friends and probably the GGWU in December.
     
    Happy birthday to me!

    Super Bowl with a family/friends group of 9 for a 21st birthday and then early August for some time at the Sky Suite pool.

    I think the other trips (Disney, Keys, Keys again, and 40th HS reunion) we have already planned will preclude any additional Vegas trips...but we shall see.

    I’ll probably go to Vegas 1 or 2 times. It’s such a long trip for me. Probably go to the Beau a couple times too.

    Our usual three trips. January, first week in June, October. 2020 adds some complexity because we usually book our trips way in advance, before the NFL publishes the 2020/2021 schedule. We have zero desire to be there on a Raiders home game weekend. Right now we’re set for January and June, but we don’t know what to do about October. The hotel reservation can be changed, but we get whomped if we book our air travel and then want to change it.

    At least one for work in Januaray and one for play in May. Maybe a second one for work in July. I don't think i'll be doing a solo one this year.

    The last few years we have gone in January, March, May, July, August, September, and November. We will shoot for a similar schedule in 2020 unless circumstances dictate otherwise.

    Tentative plans for September 2020. Whichever week the Raiders are on the road.

    It was just a few years ago that I was typically in town 12+ times per year. I got bored after a couple of years. Now it's 4x per year and that is working out great for me. It's just long enough that I really start jonseing for a trip, but not so often that I get bored. I also dropped my visits to my local - same reason. I used to go around 6x per year give or take and now I do only 2.

    Probably three trips, maybe one or two more. I think I will have to try a shorter trip (Thurs - Sun night, since I work a condensed workweek) to see how to works out; if it does, maybe more trips :thumbsup:

    1 trip most likely in October.

    We have a lot of travel already booked throughout 2020 and at this time, it does not include us in Vegas. We used to visit a lot more but with gambling everywhere, there is not the itch to visit like it once was for us. Instead of the guys trip in the winter, we would rather ski now. Trips to the Caribbean supplants the Spring trips that we used to do and with the summer boating season in Michigan being short, there is no reason to go between Memorial/Labor day for me.

    At least 3. I think March for sure, then the rest is up in the air.

    This year I took (and am taking) more trips than usual but for literally 48 hours for special events, excellent Wynncore tourneys, concerts, etc. in contrast to my usual 8 to 10 day trips.

    My big Vegas trips in 2020, at least for the first half of the year, will likely be the same; my big April trip with my mother, DBueler, nieces, etc. and potentially the week of July 4th. That may be supplemented by a couple of Friday to Sunday trips for tourneys or spectacular promos. I booked a Western Caribbean cruise in mid-February on Princess and will schedule one for late August on NCL, likely Bermuda, so I probably won't be in Vegas for my birthday in August.

    I am usually in Vegas for Thanksgiving but next year probably not. I do hope, however, to be there again to bring in 2021. After celebrating Christmas with family I actually really like being in Vegas in the Christmas to New Years window.

    Two for sure. Going to try for 3.

    If the third trip happens.... I might actually slum it on the North side at WYNN.....

    That may be the perfect line-up of trips.

    Based on my losing run , I would be tapped by July.

    Probably 4-5 trips in 2020 counting the upcoming NYE trip.
