    I just booked non-stop flights on Frontier Orlando to Las Vegas for $33 per person, each way. One time I found seats for $15 and of course we went. We were talking about catching a deal like that and going for just the day. BUT I wanted access to a pool / shower, etc, so we booked for one night. We arrive early Tuesday 4/18 morning and leave late 4/19 Wednesday night. Our total airfare round-trip for two was $180.59. Our room is at Flamingo.

    So we can see two shows. We definitely want to see The Bronx Wanderers again and I'm on a quest for the best deal. I'm leaning toward Human Nature (for the 15th time) as our 2nd show, but not sure yet.

    We were in Vegas last month, but it was cool. Just need a couple more days and some pool time and I'll be good for a while. I think.

    Great deal. One night isn't enough for me. Have fun, weather should be decent.

    That is a sweet rate, congrats!

    Spirit airlines had a crazy one day 98% off (discount does not apply for fees or taxes) and a one way ticket Philly to Los Angeles was $45.

    Not for me, either, but we were there for 8 days last month. My husband just loved The Bronx Wanderers and keeps watching their videos online. So he's tickled pink that we're seeing them again. With this opportunity, we figured "why not?"

    Front row seats booked for The Bronx Wanderers 4/18 and Human Nature 4/19 (then we head to airport for red-eye return.) Hoping for a warm, sunny Tues & Wed so we can enjoy the pool and relax during the day.

    that is a great find. I was looking at their website a few days ago. I didn't book anything, I don't care for all of their add-on fees.

    We are experienced with Frontier and aware of their fee / fare structure. We make it work for us buy booking unbelievably cheap seats and (usually) share one checked bag. This time, we'll manage a one night stay with just our personal item (1 1/2 outfits, swimsuit, basic cosmetics, tablet, snacks and a water bottle to fill after TSA.) They can assign us any seats that are going to Las Vegas. $33pp each way - SCORE! We'll both watch a movie on the way out and sleep on the way back.

    We're in our 60s and this is rather a proclamation on our part...OLD PEOPLE would NOT fly to Las Vegas for one day!

    Do you have an 8 hour lay over? That's all I could find at 100 each way. No thanks.

    I am sure Orlando has non stops to Vegas on Frontier. SW and Frontier are the only 2 that have non stops from our airport in Tampa

    I missed the non stop part. Good for the OP scoring that price!

    I got $45 on Spirit Air for non-stop LAS to PHL for my next trip. I added on a carry-on bag and splurged on the "big seat" for the red-eye coming home.

    I don't know what the original fare was but I had a 75% off code from Frontier by email. Both of our flights (outbound and inbound) are non-stop.

    I took this point to heart and caved on paying for stretch seats for the red eye. So much for my "steal" but if I'm going to sleep on a plane that modicum of comfort is probably worth it.

    Sounds like a fun quickie trip and congrats on the deal!
    We were in Vegas last weekend when all the pools opened - April will be perfect pool time. Keep us posted and enjoy those shows!

    You guys are living proof age really is just a state of mind - go go go!

    Awesome find! Flying back LV-Cleveland for $20 apiece. Frequent flyer rates. All in fees. Of course the damned luggage charges added $104 because its Spirit lol

    A few years ago I flew Atlanta to Las Vegas on Spirit round trip for 69 cents with no extra fees except for TSA. I know I can't complain but I did feel as though I over paid.
