Our other potential plans weren't coming together, so we figured we'd take the flights to Vegas.
So we ended up landing in Los Angeles on a Wednesday afternoon from a red-eye flight with no idea where we'd end up that night. We booked cheap award flights from LAX to Vegas (LAS), planning to review a different Las Vegas Strip hotel, but availability for the Daily Getaways package we'd booked never opened up for our dates. We planned to head to Vegas after ending up in LA following a week-long trip to Fiji. How did we end up at the world's only Hooters Hotel? A combination of plans falling through, a penchant for cheapness and a sprinkling of jet lag.
