    Flight advice: Durham - Las Vegas

    Possibly travelling out first week of June to LV. So far, can't find a great set of flights. From my local airports (Durham & Newcastle) I'm looking at 18hrs+, 1 or 2 stops with big gaps... IIRC it's only about 10 hours flying time.
    I seemed to think Manchester had a direct flight but can't find it, another option might be the express train to London and then a direct flight but that might well involve a load of changes within London itself.

    Advice on flights and airlines? One thing that'd be amazing is a plane on the main leg which has power adapters on seats so I can use my laptop (on economy).

      I'm not so sure Durham to Las Vegas would be considered a 'prime' route ...

      Private jet maybe?

              Can you remember which planes you flew (type not tail numbers)?

                    Gatwick to LV direct - flew with Virgin....lovley!

                    10 hrs...not too bad
                    Who has time? Who has time? But then if we do not ever take time, how can we ever have time?
