Airport Las Vegas
McCarran Airport in Las Vegas is one of the biggest airports in the United States and is located in the suburb of Paradise, about 8 km or 5 miles from downtown Las Vegas. The airport was first used in 1942 and has grown steadily since the 1950s. The latest building project is the construction of a terminal that will be completed in 2012 and which will be used for international and national long-haul flights. The decadence of the city of Las Vegas can be appreciated even at the airport. Those in the mood for gambling on arriving at the airport or wanting to get rid of loose change on leaving the city can do so at one of the 1000 slot machines which are to be found at the airport. The airport also offers shopping facilities, an emergency service and a fitness centre. Taxi is the easiest and fastest way of travelling between the airport and downtown area. The taxi stands are located on the east side of the arrivals hall. However, not every taxi accepts credit cards, so payment should be negotiated with the driver in advance. Buses also operate from the airport; the bus numbers 108 and 109 and the Airport Express all operate a service to Westcliff Station and the Las Vegas Strip.
