    If the current reopen date stands- how many of you would be comfortable traveling to Vegas on or near that date?

    Unless zombies are added to this COVID nonsense and brains are on the menu, Gaggles Annual 45th and Little Gaggles 21st WILL be taking place in June.

    Even if all the numbers started miraculously falling tomorrow, I would still not be there at the end of April. There are cabins in the woods I could have just as much fun at (but I won't be planning that either at this point). Maybe in the Fall, we'll see...

    As much as I'd like to say we would happily be there on opening day I don't think I would as it stands today. Not sure if 'everything' is going to open right away. WE do want to go back and we will; but I want to have as much as possible up and running 100% to get the full experience. We are strip dwellers for the most part and I wouldn't want only selective things opened.

    All still booked, hotel, car, and airfare.

    Contingency May 16-22, hotel and car booked.
    Will wait on air in 2 weeks, and will decide then to cancel April's flight and re-book for May.

    Oh sure. And I will be in church on Easter Sunday.

    Sorry, just being sarcastic.



    Seriously, I will consider sometime in the middle of May but it all depends and what goes on in vegas. As with others, I'm at risk so I will be watching what goes on before I go back.

    Even though I'm in good health, I'm in 60-ish age group, so I'm going to wait things out until I know for sure they have this under control. :rolleyes:

    If I knew everything was up & running? I would never have even cancelled my 4/26 trip.
    ...but that's OK... May 19th is not that far away - I'll be there, if Vegas will have me!

    Not booked until August. One night at Vdara, compliments MyVegas and two nights at the Wynn, courtesy Wynn Slots. Keeping my fingers crossed. And praying for all my VMB comrades.

    Nope. The thought that I could give the virus to someone (especially someone I care about) in a high-risk category scares the shit out of me.

    No way! Maybe in the late summer or early fall assuming things don’t veer too far from the projections/flattening of the curve, etc

    Not enough information at this time to make an informed decision.

    I am booked to return next in late May through early June from the UK - I believe there is absolutely no chance that will happen based on current real information and in all reality Vegas is a melting pot of transmission not only in the USA but to the whole world - the government shouldn’t actually allow it to open in its casino form (sadly)

    Two of my traditional trips every year are on Memorial Day (too soon) and Labor Day (planning on it).
