British Airways to fly Las Vegas-London direct
Despite the slowdown in the economy, British Airways considers Las Vegas to be “a growth opportunity for the company.” Beginning in late October, the airline will start daily non-stops between McCarran and London Heathrow.
Las Vegas tourism officials welcomed the news. Visitors’ bureau vice president Cathy Tull says the flight is a result of a decade of work to bring British Airways to the airport.
British Airways says roundtrip fares will start at about $460, plus fees and taxes.
Recessionary travel trends: camping’s making a comeback
The recession is causing people to scale back their vacation plans, especially those that involve air travel, car, and hotels. The one area where it is growing is the camping industry. “Campgrounds are going gangbusters.”
As a nifty NPR story points out, tent camping is up by 10% this year, and RV camping is robust as well, reflecting a broad trend toward modest, inexpensive vacations close to home.
In any case, the numbers don’t lie. A spot in a nice campground – with access to electricity, hot showers, and toilet facilities – can be had for as little as $15, while a hotel in a popular destination starts at about $100 a night for a borderline flophouse.
