How to Pack for a Winter Trip to Vegas

Las Vegas, where winter can be mild.

With escalating baggage fees and limited overhead space, deciding what to bring on vacation means carefully planning for both weather and activities. In Las Vegas, where daytime temperatures are generally in the 50s, and nighttime can be in the 30s, you need light jackets and warmer clothes. You can get into outdoor hot tubs year round, go hiking, and see shows that require evening wear. But if you stay in a large resort hotel with its own casino, you might not even leave your hotel.

Things You'll Need

• Airline loyalty card that offers one free checked bag
• Lightweight carry-on bag
• Accessories like scarves for women to change looks easily

Instructions

Making Decisions

1. Decide what you are going to do in Las Vegas.

2. Purchase show tickets in advance.

3. Pack dressy clothes for shows.

4. Research your hotel. If it has hot tubs and pools, pack a bathing suit.

5. Lay out clothes ahead of time so you can plan outfits. Sweaters and warm scarves can transform day time outfits to warm evening attire.

Tips & Warnings

• Check dress codes at restaurants where you plan to dine.
