And ditch the DEN LAS segment!!!!!
(I was explaining hidden city to someone, but they forgot to get off at the desired city despite me telling them and reminding them to do that)
Also DO NOT take any VDBs as you might get rerouted via SFO/YVR.
For the return I would do a one way car rental and fly out from LAS.
Also buy 2 different tickets to avoid GST on return.
It can't be easy doing domestic work up there though when there are many immigrants willing to do it for less when paid in cash.
