Practical tips
At this distance, a ground journey would eat up several days. Unless you want a road trip with stops, fly: it saves your time, your energy and your accommodation budget for the sights themselves.
JFK, Newark and LaGuardia are in different places and use different transit links. Confirm on your e-ticket which one you leave from before planning how to reach it, so you don't end up at the wrong airport.
Each New York airport has several terminals, and airlines are spread across them. Look up your airline's terminal the day before and check it again on the departure board when you arrive.
A one-stop flight can be cheaper but adds a connection risk. If your budget allows, a direct flight is simpler. If you pick a stop, leave a comfortable margin between the two flights.
Fares usually rise as the date gets closer, so book ahead. Check your airline's baggage rules before buying, since budget fares often exclude checked bags and extra fees can quickly add up.
The journey experience
Getting from New York to Las Vegas is a classic coast-to-desert jump, and the distance is the first thing to understand: this is a cross-country trip of well over 2,000 miles. For this route the plane is the realistic choice, and the comparison table on this page shows durations and price ranges at a glance so you can decide in seconds.
Flying is the only transport option listed here, and it makes sense. Direct and one-stop itineraries are offered by several major US carriers from the New York area airports, JFK, Newark and LaGuardia, into Harry Reid International Airport in Las Vegas. Cabins are comfortable enough for a daytime flight, and a one-stop routing can sometimes lower the fare. Compared with a ground journey across the whole country, flying saves you days of travel and a lot of accommodation costs on the way.
Your main task is choosing the right airport and planning the connection to your hotel. Check which New York airport your ticket uses before you leave, because they are far apart and each has different transit links. In Las Vegas, the airport is close to the Strip, so taxis, rideshares and shuttles are easy to find after you land. Book ahead for the best fares, keep your e-ticket handy, and you will arrive without stress.
