    About Harry Reid International Airport

    Las Vegas airport began in 1942 as a U.S. Army Air Corps training facility. After World War II, Clark County took over and opened it to commercial aviation. The airport was named McCarran International Airport in 1948 after Nevada Senator Pat McCarran. It was renamed Harry Reid International Airport on December 14, 2021, honoring the late Senate Majority Leader.

    Terminal 1 dates from the 1960s-80s with three gate concourses (A, B, C). Terminal 3 opened in 2012 with modern amenities and the D and E gates. Concourse D is uniquely positioned between both terminals, accessible from either via tram. The airport is famous for its slot machines in the gate areas — Vegas starts the moment you land. LAS is just 1 mile from the southern end of the Strip, making it one of the closest major airports to its city's main attraction.

    Insider Tips

    LAS is incredibly close to the Strip — just 1 mile from the south end. A taxi or rideshare to mid-Strip hotels takes 10-15 minutes and costs $15-25. Some hotels offer free airport shuttles.

    Yes, there are really slot machines in the gate areas. No, they don't pay out as well as the ones on the Strip. Save your gambling for the casinos.

    Terminal 3 (opened 2012) has significantly better restrooms and amenities than Terminal 1. If you're in Terminal 1 and have time, take the tram to Concourse D for a more modern restroom experience.

    Concourse D is accessible from both terminals via tram — it's the bridge between T1 and T3. The D gates nursing pod on the upper level lobby is often the least crowded.

    The cell phone lot is free with no time limit. Best for pickups. Located east of the T1 garage and south of T3.

    Departure lines for security on Sunday and Monday mornings are insane — everyone's leaving Vegas at the same time. Allow extra time and use TSA PreCheck if you have it.

    Vegas heat is brutal (115F+ in summer). The outdoor pet relief areas have no shade. Use the indoor post-security pet relief areas when possible, and bring water for your pet.
