Transportation from Vegas airport to Treasure Island Hotel?
May 11th, 2010
Which would be the cheapest and easiest way to get a party of 8 from the Las Vegas Airport to the Treasure Island hotel. And also back to the airport.
For a group that size the easiest and most reasonable would probably be to take a taxi. >Because of the size of your group you will need 2. Depending on traffic the fare should be around $12-$15 – DON’T let the cabbie take the tunnel, this will add $10 to your fare(they know better)

TA – 1-702-668-4000
this is a good # to write down and take with you, if you feel you have been cheated(long hauled) by the cabbie. Call the TA from the cab before you pay.
$3.20 for the first 1/8 mile, .25c for each 1/8 mile thereafter. There is a $22 per hour "waiting" fee, so if you’re stuck in traffic the meter is still running. There is also a $1.20 fee for leaving McCarran in a taxi.
There are no free shuttles to Treasure Island from McCarran. This is a list of all the free hotel shuttles in LV

A limo to your hotel is actually cheaper than the airport shuttle bus(which wait until they fill their bus to leave the AP then drop off at any number of hotels, if you’re last it can be a long ride)
You can rent a limo by the hour, or grab one the same as you would a taxi($4.50 each, to the strip I believe it was for the 4 of us)
We go to LV 2-3 times a year for 2 weeks or more at a time and have for over 20 years. I added all of the public transportation options in LV because at one time or another each has it’s advantages.
Estimated cost – for 8
Taxi – $25-$30
CAT/Deuce – $16
Limo – $36
Limo – 1hr rental of a super stretch $76(10 person)
Shuttle – $44

Later: "boo hoo" would be correct, neither the Monorail nor the Strip Trolley run to "McCarran" airport – I’m pretty sure their web site has that info.>I explained that I was adding ALL of the public transportation options around LV.

Call the hotel and ask if they provide a complementary shuttle service. If not, go to the taxistand and ask the Starter for a shuttle. It will be a little cheaper than a taxicab and the vehicles will usually be the larger, full size vans. In any case, taxis wont be very much as the strip is very close to the airport.
Do NOT accept a ride from anyone you meet INSIDE the terminal. These are "bandit" cabs, withour permits, safety inspected cars and the drivers may not even be licensed or insured. Plus, there is no regulatory control over these cars, so you won’t have any agency to report any rip off schemes these "bandits" often foist on unsuspecting visitors.

Look into taking a shuttle. I was just in Vegas 2 weeks ago, went from the airport to the Paris hotel which is just down the street from Treasure Island & it cost $24 for 2 people and we had an insane taxi driver, his driving was scary & he coped attitude when we got to the hotel, not sure why we got the attitude, because we handed him the money & said thank you and didn’t talk in the taxi the entire ride. We got the taxi from the airport where you stand in line for taxis…. If I were you I’d look into taking a shuttle.

For $20.00 i’ll come pick you all up, check and see if Treasure Island has a shuttle bus. It should all the big casino’s on the strip do, and it’s about $10.00 a person i think. Sad thing is the airport is about a 20min walk to the casino, but with case’s "YEAH"………………
