I need someone to confirm this.

A friend has been out in Vegas 3-4 times this year. He mentioned to me that the Airport is going through a remodel and that waiting for baggage is a nightmare.

He strongly recommended NOT to check any bags and use carry on to avoid the huge mess in baggage claim.

I like doing this in some cases anyway, but he said he had a friend wait for well over an hour for his luggage last time out and had to fight his way to it.

Just an FYI.

Personally I cannot answer you, but hopefully some regular Vegas visitors, or residents can help.

I live in Vegas and just returned home from a trip to Detroit. I waited for my luggage of 20 minutes. The month before, I returned home from a trip to San Diego and waited for my luggage for 15 minutes. I NEVER have waited longer than 30 minutes.

Hope this helps.

I strongly urge everyone to check their bags flying to Vegas. After the long flight, it sucks waiting for your bags in Vegas. The wait is longer than most airports (probably around 30 minutes).

Other Vegas Airport tips:

1) If not necessary, do not rent a car. The rental car place is a cluster f$%k.
2) If you are staying at a hotel with airport check in, use it.
3) Use a taxi instead of the airport shuttles. The taxi line could be long but it moves pretty quick. The airport shuttles might be a tad cheaper but it sucks waiting for it to be filled up.

My wife flew back from Houston a month ago and the wait for the bags was 37 minutes from the time she got to the claim area, so probably 45 minutes since she walked off the plane. I got lucky, the parking meter lady was running around and would have gotten to my car in a couple minutes with a fat ticket. Who the hell puts in tons of extra quarters because of 40 minute waits for bags?

Moral of the story, pack light! I almost never check bags unless the trip is a week or more.
