Before You Go to Las Vegas

Filled with excitement, you deplane at McCarran International and hop into one of the cabs waiting to take tourists to area hotels. We’ve all been there… The Strip was visible from the runway, but after your cabbie exits through the airport tunnel, you seem to be driving away from the neon signs and bright lights that were so close just a moment ago. That’s because you’re being long-hauled. The practice of taking tourists on much longer rides than necessary via the airport tunnel is a huge problem in Las Vegas—and one that is punishable by the Nevada Taxicab Authority. Make sure to ask your cabbie to take Swenson Street and not the airport tunnel to avoid getting fleeced.

Write it down… Swenson Street! Trust me!
