If you fancy taking your chances in some of the largest casinos on the planet and like the thought of a wild holiday in ‘Sin City’ then you are in luck. Getting to Las Vegas from the UK has just become even easier thanks to a new flight from British Airways.

BA has recently made the announcement that it is adding a direct flight from Heathrow to Las Vegas starting later in the year, meaning travellers will now be able to benefit from greater convenience when heading to the gambling capital of the world.

The new flights are planned to start from October 25th, and BA has announced that it is now open for bookings. This will add Las Vegas to the other 18 US cities that BA currently flies to direct from the UK, including Chicago and New York.

BA is pretty certain that it will have enough interest in the new route to make it worthwhile. A spokesman for the flight operator, John Lampl, said that “we think there is going to be plenty of business out there.” And with the recession in full swing, perhaps BA will be cashing in on people trying their luck at The Venetian, Caesar’s Palace and the other world-famous casinos that the city has to offer.

If you fancy taking the trip then a return flight, including all taxes and fees, will start at £467. You will also be able to travel in style to make the trip even more memorable because the Boeing 777 that will fly the route comes equipped with a Club World cabin which includes flat beds.

Richard Tams, a spokesman for BA, said that “we know how to fly high rollers in style”, calling the new flight the “ace in our pack”.
