Airports in other countries make the ones here look like dumps.
Some off our on the uk needs rebuilding
The TSA Pre-check is an optional program that you typically pay for. It is available at nearly all US airports. They essentially do a background check on you, and if no red flags show up, you're good to go. While you don't have to take off your shoes or belts, the big advantage is that during busy times, The TSA pre-check line takes a fraction of the time to get through. I've never spent more than 5 minutes in a pre-check line, and typically there is no waiting, just walk right through easy-peasy.
If you’re going to spend time at the airport, you should interview people that are going home. How many of them are miserable sick and sad? That’s Vegas. The only vacation you take were you swear you’ll never do it again every time and you go home sick. if you go to Hawaii or any place like that, you come back with good memories and your soul is recharged from nature, you come back from Vegas you’re toxic broke ashamed and sick. What a town!
Hate to break it to you, but Austin isn't a cowboy town.
STEVEN CAMPBELL! THE BEST CHANNEL TO WATCH TO GET THE INSIDE SCOOP ON AND ABOUT THE VEGAS STRIP! CAMPBELL IS INCREDIBLE!!!
Much better than Sam Rothstein's "Ace's High" for sure. Except Steven needs a squad of dancers.
Nice guy. You should try a job outside of sales. You should try a job where you’re not trying to push people to purchase things they don’t want. It’s the same mentality of a timeshare person. You don’t seem to care that the people you’re calling and approaching don’t want you to call or approach. What does that say about a person? Go get a job where you produce something and you feel good at the end of the day and you make money. Not sales. Try something completely different. You’re a very nice dude.
Steven, it will always be McCarran. No worries.
That dead name meter was hilarious😂
i thought they changed the name to Harry Reid?
I fly a lot. Parking is easy to find. There is a huge price difference between short and long term parking. You parked in long term in Las Vegas and looked at short term in Austin. Short term is expensive so people don't park there long term and the short term people can meet and pick up their people. And no, you're not supposed to turn your phone off on a plane. Just airplane mode. The line for taking nothing out of your bag, you need TSA Pre Check or Clear. Costs extra and they do a background check. LAS is my favorite airport. While I don't smoke anymore, I like that people can. They also feed the machines to help keep it so we don't pay state income tax.
A word of warning, slot machines at the airport are among the "tightest" in the city. They don't have offer great payout rates because....like where else are you going to go lol? (you're mainly there to get on a plane to leave or arrive).
Ya they say they are tight but I've done a lot better many times at the Vegas Airport. My buddy lost $1500 in Vegas but won it back at thr Airport on his way home. I never skip the airport slots.
There’s been some big jackpots won there. Plus pretty sure they have to set them by a standard from the Gaming Commission
The largest jackpot I ever won on a slot machine was at McCarron.
The airport slots are very tight, but so are the ones on the strip. Tourists who don't leave the strip are unlikely to notice a difference.
@@sexygeek8996 I'm not surprised the hotels haven't gone back to pay toilets (eg., back in the old days they actually had these though I'm not that old to know whether any Vegas establishments had them).
Steven another great video I'm glad u had a safe trip.
The numbers on the elevators are probably numbers for the elevator not the floor.
Elevator 1, 2, 3 etc.
I live in NW Arizona and Whorehouse Harry's airport is the one we and my visiting relatives use a lot. I like it. It is a clean and friendly place. Since I am an old fart I usually wait for arriving guests at the Thunderbird up on the upper floor and have them meet me there.
When you feel like slurring your airport names, go to Las Vegas! Holy McCarron, Batman!
Minneapolis is the best airport I have been to….
Minneapolis is a good airport, for sure.
Great content! Loved it!
Thanks Mike, i wish this would have gotten more love but thank you for finding me!
As a joke, I call the economy area of the plain, the Sit Down and Be Quiet section.
It's really good to see Steven with his boss and coworker. I do wish that he would walk an area of town once a week or even once a month. I miss the old pandemic video days. Maybe just once a month? Would be pretty cool.
His life was threatned more than once so he has stopped but if he stays near the Flamingo and center strip or South towards Cosmo he should be fine. North Strip near Resorts World is very dangerous.
Bergstrom and Reid have the exact same security systems in place 😂…everyone goes thru the same screening except if you are TSA Pre. It’s basically a more extensive background government check that you don’t have to take ur shoes off 😂….both airports are nice. Also if you’re a disabled Veteran in Austin just tell to look at your license plates and you get free parking.
THANK YOU for calling it McCarran and not Harry Reid!!!
Obviously you have never been to Ohare, LAX, SFO, JFK and LaGuardia.
Thank you for the content, different.
Did you not originate from Calgary (Cow town) which has the Greatest Show on Earth (Stampede Rodeo)?
I love the dead name meter, as my first trip to Vegas was in 1994 and I still say McCarran all the time. Having been TSA Pre for several years, that part of the video made me LOL
I love Milwaukee's Airport. Vegas airport is a mess. TSA at Vegas wasn't fun for us when we were coming back.
Have been coming to Vegas since 2004 and the airport is totally different now. It was small and cramped. Now it's huge.
Did you come into Terminal 2 on an international flight? The only expansion was replacing that crappy little terminal with the new Terminal 3.
@@sexygeek8996 I flew out of that crappy terminal. When I came back in 2006 the new terminal was open
Just call it the Dick Smothers Airport. ( Casino)
McCarren used to be a really good airport. they changed the name now it just is another place you want to avoid
You can get $18 parking and busses take you to the terminal
i will tell you what sucks about this airport. we arrive in terminal D and they take our luggage to the VERY LAST carousel. it's nearly a one-mile walk from the gate to the carousel.
No tram at the Austin airport. It reminds me of Ontario Ca's airport in a lot of ways
Hopefully you had a great flight ✈️ and enjoyed your video. Looks like you flew AA.
I dont turn off my phone while flying, but I do put it in airplane mode. No sense wasting battery life searching for a signal.
Yes I turn airplane mode on when flying. Delta eh. I had a credit to use for Delta so I booked a flight YYC to LAX to San Jose return. I get weekly notices of changes to my flights. Now they have me connecting in Seattle with a 7 hour layover. Ugh! The different content is much appreciated.
Does it really matter which airport is better? If you have to get to 1 or the other, you are going to have to fly there. IMO the airports internationally are so much more innovative than those in the U.S.A. It is sad that the cities are so tight with their monies to spend on airports. If you think the airports in AUS and LAS are bustling, go to LHR, FRA, MAD, HKG, and BKK.
16:30 McCarran. I'll be saying that for a long time.
McCarran airport would be better if they didn't have so much fun stuff BEFORE security. Put all the fun stuff after security so that you don't have to worry about the clock and lines and can enjoy all the shops and stores... DFW - My primary airport has nothing until you get through security... Parking is probably cheaper in Vegas because most of the traffic isn't locals needing a parking spot... Enjoyed the Video!
Good vid, but ~ it is time to get a big boy haircut !
Right on - that mullet haircut looks stupid!
Better names for Vegas airport - Wayne Newton, Elvis Presley, Oscar Goodman or even McCarran!
They should just call it Las Vegas Airport or (if you really want to be correct) Clark County Airport. We might have to rename it again in 50 years if Harry Reid did something that offends the standards of that time.
Is the Austin airport parking price always that absurd? In San Antonio it's only 17 or 18 per day at the long term garage connected to the terminal, even cheaper if you park in the outlying lots and shuttle in. However, tickets out of Austin are usually cheaper than out of San Antonio, so they get you one way or the other apparently...
Hey brother. Pete from Jersey
Leaving Vegas was a nice change . Getting popcorn for the world tour.
Great “off piste” content Steven. Always informative with great editing. My go to vegas vlog ! Coming back over the pond to my favourite city in a month. Hope to catch you.
As always I loved the video. I’ve been to both airports and they are pretty average. As you said both have pros and cons.
The Harry Reid airport part Casino and part airport, they’re in the money business
Don't worry i still call it Mccarren myself to lol
I went to Austin many times in the 80s, the Airport is unrecognizable
The airport is 15 miles from where it was in the 80s. It's now out at the old Bergstrom AFB southeast of town. Mueller airport closed over 25 years ago.
Yes I turn off my phone...read along when the safety procedures are being announced...I'm just sort of a weirdo like that.
In the line where some people are taking things out of bags and some arent - most major US airports are phasing in new machines that can scan your bag without requiring you to take your laptop or other electronics out first. They’re very expensive, so they’re rolling them out as they’re installed rather than just installing all of them at once, so some lines make you take your electronics out and some don’t.
Nice Video! Enjoyable to watch! Not too short, not too long..
I like this my friend. Love you brother.
TSA precheck is SO worth it
When my wife heard don't have to remove the shoes, she said heck yeah. We figured we'd go to Vegas once a year. Still happy to pay it. We've done 8 trips already in two years. Precheck is a must.
The Harry Reid airport is the worst of the worst. After touch down heading from Frankfurt (Germany) in Las Vegas I didn't get my connecting flight. I spent 6 hrs starting from 11:00 p.m. to 05:00 a.m. next day to get my connecting flight to San Francisco. All shops, restaurants, cafes and bars were closed. Even not options to buy a coffee/water from an automat. No option to charge my phone/laptop. No officer to ask for any recommendations. I will always try to avoid this airport reminding me on the standard of airports in the 1970th.....
LAS has changed in the 13 years we've been coming here. We fly out of Ohio airports due to expenses of small airports. Columbus (CMH) and Cincinatti (CVG) are our departure airports. We like only non-stop flights now and the return flight is always a red eye. LAS is always busy, and our flights are generally always full, can you say (Economy airlines). We've had stops before in Houston, Pheonix, L.A., and Dallas. Didn't care for any of these, but if you get used to traveling this way, you get used to one and don't pay attention to the layouts and crowds. TSA is a really convoluted experience no matter which airport you go to. Used to get pre check when we flew but started getting no pre check last several years. As this is the only airports we use, my view isn't much to compare with. My wife has to stop at the smoking slot machine facility first thing arriving and last thing leaving. Only airport we know of with that.
What does “slammed” mean?
Steve. I still call the airport in Vegas McCarran! And I actually don't think much of it. The check in there was murder! So. I JUST GRIN AND BEAR IT AND GIVE IT A THUMBS DOWN. GOOD LUCK TO YOU AND YOURS. ❤
Only real annoyance with LV in T3 was places to eat/drink closing at 20:00 and couldn't order food after 19:00 (flight was 21:00) ...... website says 22:00 so don't know if this has changed since September?
Wow. Yes, everyone has WAY MORE experience flying than you. You have never heard of TSA Pre-Check? You really need to travel more. All good. It's just interesting that your channel viewers travel to Vegas & know exactly how TSA Pre-Check works in all airports as far as security & you describe it like it's new to world this year. So bizarre.
I really liked this video, Steven! You asked what's your favorite airport. Of the 15 major US airports I've been to, my favorite is O'Hare, with Vegas a close 2nd. O'Hare has an impressive underground walkway to United with beautiful neon signage and music. The metal palm trees is so Vegas, and I like the tram.
It’s the only airport where I can get there 2 hrs early, it not be super crowded , and barely make my flight. With its long random waits at tsa with nothing moving while we all stand around to the bag getting flagged if you have a friggin snack in it( no other airport does this shit) this place always successfully contributes to my anxiety
Loved your video Steven. What's the deal with the Austin hipster? What a "character".
Douchebag amirite?
Harry Reid International is not a great airport. Folks should know that the slot machines at the airport have the worst odds of any you will find. Concourses are narrow, and the men's bathroom at the end of the Southwest boarding area features 1 each toliet and 1 each urninal? And this is a major city airport! Compare this airport to Portland, Oregon. The new concourse for United and Southwest there is wide and tall with a modern, bright design. The airport has been named #1 in the nation by Conde Nast for several years. Plan a trip up there sometime (in the Summer) to see the difference!
The last time I flew in and out Austin was 94 and Vegas was 97. 😂 I know they have changed!
Been doing Vegas since 1970, usually twice a year. It will always be McCarran Airport to me.
It's an okay airport at best. Terminal 3 is nicer than terminal 1. Any part of the airport that isn't visible to the public is a disgusting mess. They opened up terminal 3 in 2012 and the areas that the airport workers inhabit haven't been cleaned since then.
Am subscribed and already hit the like button. First thing I do when I come here. My late wife loved to play the slots at the airport as we were waiting to get the plane home. Even better was the airport in Reno. McCarren Airport was the first airport I saw the people movers at. Used to live in Austin. Lived in Las Vegas also. Senator McCarran had the airport built.
I use film lol
Milwaukee Airport is Great. 100times better than Chicago
Naming the airport Harry Ried was a huge mistake.
I haven't been to SXSW in a long time. I get Shiner Bock beer on occasion to remember my time in TX. 🍺
Not a bad airport. Hate the name though. Reid was a wimpy scoundrel.
I waited an hour for a shuttle to Park MGM. I was dropped off last. It took almost 2 hours. My flight was less than an hour. Sad
I would take Uber or a taxi
Haven’t turned off my phone or even put it in airplane mode in many years. It doesn’t matter……
My favorite full sized airport is Vegas, I feel fortunate to have such a great airport here. The only airports I like better are the little 5-10 gate regional airports.
I always considered the Las Vegas airport to be small, mainly based on the land area it covers.
@@sexygeek8996 You need to fly out of a regional airport like one with 5 gates or one without jetways where they push the ramp to the plane. Those airports are awesome! It takes like 10mins to get through TSA.
@@oblivieon1567 I have flown into and out of airports that have only one gate. I grew up in a small city that had such an airport. It is often hard to find flights to where you want to go, especially direct flights. The ones you do find usually have inconvenient connections and higher fares. The TSA line can still be long if several flights are leaving soon.
Take a sip of your drink every time you hear this word: mccarran. haha
The key for Harry Reid is try to arrive in Terminal 3
🔥🔥🔥
You really should go to Atlanta. Beautiful airport
Vegas is waaaaay more of a cowboy town than Austin……
“… for only 16 cents… “
Great stuff!! 👍
Tampa is the best airport that I’ve been too.
One unfortunately it’s Brandon
Great video. Keep up the great content!
All the Wisconsin airports are easy
Pre-check is also available at Vegas
Tokyo, Japan has a great airport.
I used to live halfway between Austin and San Antonio, town called New Braunfels, never went near the Austin Airport, but passed the San Antonio one a few times. However, have been to Harry Reid (McCarren), and that was one large laid out airport. BTW, did you ever get to go beyond Austin, or pretty much stayed there? Great comparison show, though!
I wanted to go to New Braunfels, for Wurstfest, to see Mollie B. But, never have. Is Wurstfest worth it?
@@visaman Yes, although anytime is good, as it is steeped with German heritage beyond Wurstfest. As with anything, though, planning is the key. San Antonio is the closer airport, while both Greyhound and Amtrak has a stop in San Marcos, 10 miles north, so driving is strongly recommended. Also, most accommodations are along I 35 near State Route 46. Just some ideas for when you get to go!
@@robertphelan8512 Thank you very much!
When we visit, we take the bus to and from the airport. Arrivals are cake. We check bags on Southwest. By the time we get off the plane and get to baggage, they are coming out. And the bus is just down the escalator and out the door. After a few trips we're super familiar with the airport. Including back tracking towards the baggage claim in terminal 1 to catch the tram to the end of D concourse.
The airport in Vegas is very big and it takes a while to get around. The Austin is airport has grown a lot in the last 20 years but it is nowhere near the Vegas airport.
Never have never will
With creepy Joe
Now it's "not leaving the Alamo "
i wish i had more time in TX. Super nice place!
Love the Hat
Happy Friday and have a great weekend.
Thank you and you too!
This is great Steven! I like this new format ya got going on.
Thanks for the video of two of my favorite cities.
Really enjoyed this style video. Nice work!!
Thanks!
Thank you!
