View of the Las Vegas Strip while landing. The tower at the Stratosphere is at the right. – photo by Joe AlexanderWhen you fly into Harry Reid International Airport in Las Vegas, usually you come in from the north. If you happen to have a window seat on the right side of the plane, that gives you a great view of the Las Vegas Strip.
Look for the tower at the Stratosphere, which is at the north end of Las Vegas Boulevard, and you’ll see all the big casinos right after that. If this is your first trip to Las Vegas be forewarned – the casinos look smaller and a lot closer together from the air than they do when you’re walking.
