Buckle Up Buttercup: How Long is That Flight to Vegas, Baby?
So you're itching for a Sin City spectacular? Traded your snow boots for sequined stilettos? Excellent choice! But before you can be stuffing your face at a $20 buffet and dodging fistfights over slot machines (hopefully not!), there's that pesky little hurdle: the flight.
How long does that metal bird take to get from the city that never sleeps to the one that never quits gambling?
QuickTip: Every section builds on the last.
Well, my friend, it depends. Just like choosing between roulette or craps, there's a bit of luck involved.
Tip: Read at your natural pace.
The Speedy Gonzales: Non-stop flights can take as little as 6 hours and 15 minutes! That's quicker than binge-watching your favorite show. Boom, you're practically poolside with a margarita in hand before you can say "what happens in Vegas..."
The Scenic Route: Add a layover and you're looking at anywhere from 8 to 12 hours. Think of it as a bonus vacation! Explore another city for a few hours, stretch your legs, and maybe snag some free in-flight peanuts (emphasis on maybe).
Here's the thing to remember: Flight times are like those buffets we mentioned earlier - they can change depending on the day, the airline, and whether the pilot decides to take a detour to avoid turbulence caused by a herd of angry geese (hey, it's happened!).
Tip: Stop when you find something useful.
