What’s Wrong with Las Vegas?
Skift Take
Next time you’re in Las Vegas, don’t bet on the number six. During the first four months of this year, passenger traffic at Las Vegas airport was down 6% versus the same four months last year.
Issue Overview
Las Vegas is losing altitude. Traffic is down six percent, and Spirit's death explains only part of the slump. This issue asks what really ails Sin City, why JetBlue is trading New York for Florida, and why Norwegian just bought its way into the package-holiday business. Brussels held the line on EU261, the Gulf is reopening, and oil has eased back to a level airlines can live with.
