The package includes round-trip airfare to Las Vegas on Southwest and a two-night stay at the Stratosphere Las Vegas Hotel & Casino, at the top of the Vegas Strip and offering the usual extras--pool, spa, fitness center, and 80,000-foot casino.

Southwest's packages are easily customizable and allow you to add nights or to travel over the weekend for extra fees. For instance, a three-night stay at the Stratosphere in early December starts at an additional $70 per person, based on a Monday departure from Phoenix. A Friday departure from Phoenix with a three-night stay at the Stratosphere in early December starts at an extra $105 per person.

Upgrade to the MGM Grand Hotel & Casino from $60 per person or to the Wynn Las Vegas from $145 per person.

In comparison, the lowest round-trip fare we've found between Phoenix and Las Vegas in late November is $117 (America West). With Southwest Vacations, you'll save at least $20 and get your two-night stay.
