| - I may be biased but this is my favorite airport.
Being a Las Vegas local, I am very familiar with our airport. I find if convenient to pick people up (though it can be confusing before you know the layout).
Flying out of Macarran is always a breeze. I have rarely experienced a huge line at security and generally the lines move very quickly. There are tons of places to eat and shop once you get through security.
This is an airport for people watchers. First of all people come to Las Vegas from all over the world so there are so many different types of people to look at. Secondly, in Las Vegas, people visiting tend to wear the most gaudy, tiny, see through, sequin covered, outfit. Words like age and weather appropriate go out the window. They then pair said outfit with the craziest and often highest heels they own which makes for an excellent show. Lastly, inhibitions are abandoned and, most likely, they've been drinking since they boarded their plane to Vegas. Therefore you are left with people of every color of the rainbow, running around drunk looking like they got dressed in a cross between Liberace and Cher's closet. All of this equates to the best people watching experience you will ever have.
Finally, this airport has something that I've never seen in any other airport, slot machines. So if the shopping and people watching isn't keeping you entertained, and you haven't already lost your life savings, you can pull up a seat and try your luck at some last minute winnings.
If you are flying into Las Vegas, our baggage claim area is huge and very efficient. You won't have to wait long for a bag. Ground Transportation is also pretty simple. The taxi line may look forever long but it's lightening quick. Most importantly, our airport sits right next to the fabulous Las Vegas strip so the ride to your hotel should be short.
Good luck while visiting!
