When jet fuel costs spiked to well over $3/gal and US was very near another Ch 11 filing, US eliminated the late night LAS hub operations. The LAS hub made sense at the very low wage scales paid to the US employees in combination with low fuel prices. When fuel prices spiked, the hub was closed. Not a casino conspiracy.
