Flight

Staying at the LUXOR, I got a coupon for $ 20 at this bar. I thought it was a gimmick until I went and asked the guy at the bar what the catch was. No catch, just as good as a $ 20. Had a couple drinks waiting for things to happen, and then went about my way.
Its not trendy, its not amazing, its nothing special. But I got friendly service, a nice comfortable stool I would love to have at my own bar, and $ 20 worth of free drinks. Check it out if you need a break from the gambling — its quiet, has a TV, and the bartender was amazingly nice.

There’s not much to say about Flight, located among the myriad slots of the fading beauty, Luxor. It’s kind of a sad little nook of a bar with built-​in video poker to help pass the time as you wile away the hours, wishing you were at the hipper Cosmopolitan or the more posh Paris or even the kitschier Golden Nugget. But there are two things Flight has going for it: the grooviest little barstools I’ve seen. If I could stuff 4 of these bad boys into my carry-​on luggage and take them back home to my basement lounge in Indiana, I totally would. These turquoise beauties are just adorable.
And the second thing I like about Flight: the $ 20 worth of drink coupons in the booklet you receive upon checking in. I’m the kind of person who usually ignores these pamphlets because I assume it’s all advertisements or there’s some kind of fine print or catch. I never flip through them. For some reason I did this time, and I found the $ 20 drink coupon from Flight and totally didn’t believe it. We plopped down and asked our curmudgeonly server, «What’s the catch?» and he replied, «No catch, that’s a $ 20 bill.» Well alrighty.
