Vegas will probably always do well. But then there’s only one Vegas, just like there’s only one NYC or Orlando.
Las Vegas has adapted better than most places.
30 years ago you couldn’t find a great meal in there. Now top chefs are everywhere.
Top entertainers rotate through a dozen venues, as well as 5-day-a-week shows.
Las Vegas is also a jumping off point. Five hours in different directions;
Grand Canyon, Zion, Bryce, and the North Rim.
I’d rather fly into Vegas and drive to LA, than fly direct. Same for Salt Lake city (best ski resorts in the country.)
BTW, some us who worked in Las Vegas in ‘85 flew to AC to look at a couple casino operations. After a day there, we cut our 5 day stay short and flew home.
They opened the Live cascino in Baltimore on Wednesday and on Saturday they showed on the local news a fight.
It looked horrible - like they were fighting over a
million dollars - turned out to be over pizza.
