I stumbled upon this, some of the people going may be interested in something like this:
http://www.alllasvegastours.com/
1) All American Grand Canyon Helicopter Flight with Grand Canyon Landing, Champagne Lunch & Free Limo Upgrade (Helicopter).
List Price $378.99 USD
Lowest Price From $286.99 USD
Savings $92.00 USD
Description: We offer you a one-of-a-kind adventure to one of the 7 wonders of the world - the majestic Grand Canyon. Enjoy roundtrip hotel transportation with our free upgrade to a Luxury Limousine.
Take flight from Las Vegas in our luxurious, state of the art 6-passenger, A-Star helicopters and soar over Lake Mead & the Hoover Dam. Take this opportunity to snap a few pictures, before we whisk you to the West Rim of the Grand Canyon (flight time is approximately 45 minutes).
Listen as our pilot offers expert narration on these amazing sights via 2-way radio headsets. Multilingual digital narration is available upon request (Spanish, French, Italian, German, Russian & Japanese).
Upon entering the Grand Canyon, we descend nearly 3,200 feet and land on the Canyon floor for your Champagne picnic. Toast your All American Adventure as you dine under our authentic Indian Ramada shelter.
After lunch, take to the air for our return journey to Las Vegas (approximately 45 minutes). We'll take you around the East side of Lake Mead for a glimpse of the Valley of Fire before flying along the world famous Las Vegas Strip for amazing aerial views.
Perhaps a few of us could split off one day and do our own thing?

Quoting: lzrman What is everyone's status on attenting? Not Attending Perhaps Yes Attending
Perhaps....for like a couple hours at least...depends on when I'll be in the area on my way up to Utah to go camping.
Meanwhile those who ARE attending might be able to go to the new location of the ST Experience as they're attempting to open it in May in time for the new movie!

Just my two cents, but the Imperial Palace is actually in the middle of the strip if memory serves. It wasn't the newest or nicest, but not bad either.

I vote for the Chocolate Factory tour. Just don't tell my dentist

Dierna: I'll be booking my holiday this weekend (taken so long due to waiting for credit card cut off)
So i'm defenantly being there (go to be as i'm the organiser *LOL*)
As for everyone else, i think they are all waiting for atleast one person to say "I'M BOOKED AND WILL BE THERE"
Kaela Donos will also be there as she doesnt live far, but not sure if for everyday or some.
Rascal and Shakeycat i think are for a few days, but not sure when
As said, I think everyone is just waiting for me to say that i'm booked before commiting

Just booked my two weeks in USA
Land in Las Vegas Sunday 28th June at 14.47
Staying at Stratosphere Tower & Casino & Resort Hotel
Flying back to london on Sunday 5th June at Midday
Edit: As the price was per room, i presume i could share the King Size bed with someone.
Now all I have to do is renew my passport, get my insurance and fill in the stupid online form to be allowed into the US.

I read an article somewhere on the web that Star Trek Experience will be 100% open by 2010 (yes a year after our visit), but they say by 8th of May 2009 they should have the Restaurant and Shop open

Aquila: You wasnt Drunk or anoying last time. I think the only anoying thing last time was that Lieutenant who took loads of photographs (I wonder who that was?  *LOL*)
I think I remember that Tommy and Ivonna couldnt make it 
Rascal and ShakeyKat are pondering.
I think Dommy maybe attending, but not 100% sure.
Page said that if Dommy is going, she may tag along.
But for the above, no real confirmation if they are or not going yet.
8 weeks til Union.
*Edit* Yay, renew passport(10 year) arrived (with its 2 year guarentee bio chip).
Now all I have to do is fill in that Electronic System for Travel Authorisation (ESTA)
