It always amazed me (and I’ve seen such stupidity elsewhere) that they build this big fancy people mover and don’t connect it to the airport. How much did city planners get paid off by the taxi lobby to not add the most single useful stop?
And this expansion STILL won’t add it to the airport!

It was originally built with “Public/Private” money by MGM to connect it’s strip hotels. Then the city took it over...
A dirty little secret in Las Vegas is to take the free shuttle from the airport to the rental car center and call a taxi to pick you up there.
It actually isn’t big - the cars are too small to hold many people, let alone people with luggage going to the airport. It was just a typically horrible execution of what might originally have been a good idea.
Taxis are getting killed everywhere by Uber and Lyft.
