AIRPORTS
If you fly into McCarran, Clark County it’s a bit like landing on the Vegas strip. Most airports are stuck out on cheap land 15 miles from the city centre but this one puts you straight down in the thick of things. It was the location for Sean Connery to strut around in the sharpest black suit in Diamonds Are Forever, it’s the ferry point for Air Force workers travelling up to the top secret Area 51, ground temperatures in Summer can get up to 122 degrees – oh and it’s the 6th busiest airport in the world.
