LONDON, May 17, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --
British Airways is launching another new high rolling route from
Gatwick with the start of flights
to Las Vegas from October 29 2012.
The three-times-a-week service will be operated by a three-class
Boeing 777 offering a premium Club World cabin with fully flat
beds.
The new Gatwick route offers
more choice and frequency from London airports. Together with the
Heathrow service British Airways
will operate 10 flights a week to Las
Vegas.
Colm Lacy, British Airways' head
of commercial Gatwick, said:
"Las Vegas has proved to be an
incredibly popular year-round destination from Heathrow so we are delighted to now be able to
offer the route from Gatwick as
well.
"This is the kind of destination our leisure customers at
Gatwick are looking for and it
will complement our existing USA
and longhaul leisure network."
Customers can book holidays in Las Vegas for less by booking
their flights, hotels and experiences together. Home to sumptuous
spas, luxury hotels and many excellent attractions, Las Vegas is the perfect place to enjoy luxury
holidays.
British Airways has a wide range of top hotels in Las Vegas on the strip available, from the
three-star Riviera Hotel and Casino which has just completed a
multi million dollar renovation to the famous and luxurious
Bellagio. The five-star hotel treats guests to sweeping views of
the magnificent lake and classical gardens while five-star The
Venetian Resort Hotel Casino recreates the glory of Venice and has suites nearly twice the size as
a typical Las Vegas hotel room.
The five-star Aria Resort and Casino, located in the heart of
the City Centre, combines architecture with sustainable design and
five-star The Wynn Resort Las Vegas provides gastronomic options
for every taste.
Las Vegas is a hotspot of
activity out in the Nevada desert.
Customers looking for things to do in Las
Vegas as an alternative to the casinos and shows will not be
disappointed by amazing helicopter rides over the Las
Vegas Strip or the Grand Canyon or visiting the impressive
Hoover Dam, built during the Great Depression.
