go to book it and everything says unavailable. Did that many people book
from San Jose to Vegas in 1 hour or are these fares only available on
certain days etc??? Anybody know???

When you get to their website, read the fine print on the internet specials,
they are usually only available with at least 20 day advance notice and
certain days of the week. I have never seen specials available for weekend travel,
ie: leave Friday come home Sunday. The specials are usually for obscure days of
the week and no overnight travel which is considered "business travel" to
airlines. Good luck finding a good rate, I was trying to get cheap flights for
9/26 and come home on 9/28, from Burbank to Vegas, (wanted to see Billy Idol at
Mandalay Bay Beach Concert, saw him last year it was GREAT!), but I gave up. I
couldn't even find flights 2 months in advance that were the times I needed
at less than about $150 each,

Good Luck,
Liz

Try a Sat. arrival with a Mon. departure.

I didn't think you could check in or out of a hotel in Vegas on a
Saturday.
