Do you know if trips from Los Angeles to Las Vegas (or vise versa) with Megabus.com will be discontinued? I've been trying to make reservations for myself for mid-June or beyond but the website isn't allowing me to do so.

I've seen somewhere that there are Segway tours in Las Vegas. Do these tours exist and if so, do you feel they're a good deal?

We were in Vegas recently (5/1 - 5/5) and had several cab drivers try to take us on round-about ways to get to our destination. Luckily, we have been to Vegas enough times to know the difference. One got very angry when we insisted he not take the highway from MGM to the Venetian. How often does this happen and what can someone do about it?

Where does the Monorail begin and end? I have trouble walking and wish to stay where I can get to the Sands convention hall easily without being forced to stay at the Venetian.

Why did Allegiant Air pull out of Lansing, Michigan? They said it was because they were not making enough money. But all the flights were full and they have a lot of upset customers who loved the straight flight to Las Vegas. Why would they do that when everyone wants to go to Vegas? We would fly out with them three to four times a year and use your coupon book. Now we have a coupon book, but no good straight flights from Michigan to Vegas. We need answers.

I recently read the following summary of major projects being built on the Strip: Wynn Encore, $2.2 billion, early 2009, 5,000 jobs; Cosmopolitan, $3 billion, late 2009, 7,500 jobs; CityCenter, $7.8 billion, late 2009, 15,900 jobs; Fontainebleau, $2.8 billion, late 2009, 9,700 jobs; Echelon, $4.8 billion, late 2010, 13,250 jobs; Plaza, $5 billion, 2011, 8,750 jobs; Crown, $5 billion, 2011, 7,500 jobs; MGM Dubai World $5 billion, 2012, 7,500 jobs. Where is everyone going to park? And with all of those new buildings, new jobs, more rooms, and more tourists, how are people going to get around? The Strip is already very slow most of the time. And where are all the people who are going to fill all these new jobs? Where are they all going to live? What about the water shortage? And what about other infrastructure? Is someone planning for all of this? Boom times indeed.

I was wondering why they don't have table games at McCarran Airport. It would be a great way to pass time waiting on a flight!

We’re coming to Vegas the Wednesday before Thanksgiving and renting a car. Can you tell us what we can expect from the new rental-car center at the airport?

We are traveling to Las Vegas over Thanksgiving with my mother-in-law, who's in her seventies and cannot walk distances. She'd like to see some of the newer casinos and shopping areas, but they're so huge we were wondering if the hotels or casinos have motorized scooters you can use while you visit the properties, or if there's a company where we could rent one for the week? Also, are there any special rooms in Vegas modified for the blind or visually impaired, as her son is blind?

I've heard that the so-called "secret passageway" to the Southwest Airlines gates at McCarran is now closed. Could you please comment on this subject?
