Vegas Contest

I am proud to announce a contest that has never been done at Sean’s Ramblings. I am hoping to take a vacation to Las Vegas in late June, approximately Monday, June 22 through Friday, June 26, but I may be flexible by a day or two on either side. Your challenge is to help me find the cheapest flight from Washington Dulles airport (IAD) to Las Vegas (LAS). A few ground rules. Since I’m flying across the country, the trip must be at least 3 nights. You may find a great deal for flights leaving Washington on Wednesday and returning on Thursday, but that doesn’t quite work well. In addition, the flight must have one or less stops, and I prefer not to take the red-eye back.

Please leave your best results, including the price and airline, in the comments section or e-mail me at seanramblings[at]yahoo(dot)com.

The winner, and in fact all contestants, will receive a free burger at Red Robin on your birthday! All you have to do is sign up for the Red Robin e-club. Did you really think I was going to pay for you to fly to Vegas? I doubt that you would you read this far if my headline was “Help Sean Find a Cheap Flight.” Think about it this way. You would love to read a blog post or two about my experiences in Vegas!

On that note, thanks for your help!

    But what you should REALLY do is stop over for a visit in Phoenix for a night or 2 on the way there or the way back!

  2. Thanks Amy. At this point, you are clearly the winner!

    It may be tough to take off over a week of vacation to head to Phoenix. Maybe next time.
