Personally, unless I'm going more than 3 stops, the Monorail is utterly worthless.
I think the best quick-fix would be to run The Deuce straight to LAS after stopping at NYNY. Right now, it goes all the way to the SSTC(?) then you have to transfer to another bus, bascially taking the long way around the airport.
Stupid taxi lobby.
The main purpose of the Duece is to serve the las vegas strip and downtown. Diverting after NYNY would not serve Excalibur, Luxor, Mandalay Bay. How much of the bus traffic is now going to LAS?
I find the connection at SST to be not too bad--you take the 109 North. I can get from say Bellagio to LAS via Duece and 109 in 30 minutes--and I don't have to have a scheduled shuttle bus pick-up, which makes several other stops. From Downtown, 109 and 108 both serve the airport.
If you look down from one of the wings of MGM, you see planes right below you.
