The fact that this airport absolutely sucks is a blessing in disguise. I love Vegas, and this POS airport is one of the only things that keeps me from visiting the strip on a monthly basis.
It's old, it smells, the security lines are longer than Space Mountain on a Sunday. No matter what day or time you fly in, it always takes forever to get a taxi.
I just want to get off the plane, start pounding booze and get to my hotel without having to fight lines, crowds, and washed up hookers... but apparently that's asking too much.
But if you want to enjoy the bright lights of Vegas, you have to suck it up and venture through this awful airport.
