Haha I do the same. I hate it though when there's like 5 smokers in a row, and I'm like about to pass out because I hold my breath so long, LOL.

But AWESOME! I stayed at the Belagio last time I went to Vegas, I want to see the Disney hotel when it opens! Thanks for the info!

Ooh a new themepark? That would be pretty cool, hope it's true

I'm sensitive to smoke, I have to hold my breath from 20 feet away

that's odd, cali's only like 6 hours away... why don't they build it in texas or something, so there's something in the middle..

on the bright side, vegas is way easier for me to get to rather than cali, so yay!

although this seems really unbelievable..

I could understand a hotel resort or something involving of DVC, but there are several things that make me firmly believe a Disney Theme Park in Las Vegas will absolutely not happen:
  1. Disney already has a heavily invested theme park resort in the Western US. The Disneyland Resort is short 6-hr drive or 1-hr flight from Las Vegas. DLR already draws in guests from all over the Western US, Southern California, and East Asia/Pacific.
  2. Summer Temperatures during the peak travel season are near unbearable to have a theme park with outdoor attractions and walkways. Some guests at Disneyland may find summer temperatures in Anaheim to be uncomfortable and those temperatures are usually 10-20 degrees lower than Las Vegas.
  3. Las Vegas tourism is targeted to grown-ups and is not aimed toward a family-friendly environment. Put it simply...Theme Parks are and have been a bust in Las Vegas. Las Vegas attempted that back in the 90s with a couple theme parks and family oriented entertainment but it was a failure compared the more profitable casinos. MGM Grand's theme park has been replaced with condos, the water park is long gone, and since when have we've heard Circus Circus being the talk of the town in recent years.
