Default What's the deal on Vegas Flights lately?

So I've been to Vegas numerous times and have always paid between $100-$200 for a flight (between $200-$400 returns plus taxes). I've been looking conitnually since now to get there on any weekend in the months of April or May (bunch of friends want to go), and it is now almost $300 each way ($600 return prior to taxes).

Am I missing something. Is there a reason prices are so high right now? Anyone know of any cheaper alternatives? If prices stay likes this we may just go golfing in Phoenix for a weekend instead.

Final 4 is the second busiest betting time after superbowl.

Yeah, but I am looking for slights in late April/early May.

Lots of cheap deals in mid-April. I'm looking to book a flight to the NAB Conference. Right now it's around $290. Could be because it's mid-week though.

You are also getting into the summer flight schedule instead of the winter one.

The price of Hookers and Blow has dropped by 34.5%... as a result tourism in Vegas has increased by approximately 134.76%.
