It’s too early for Las Vegas to react to spiking gasoline prices, the top executive of the Las Vegas Convention and Tourism Authority said Tuesday.
Steve Hill, president and CEO of the LVCVA, said in the past, resort companies have presented guests from drive markets with gasoline gift cards to offset the expense of a trip to Las Vegas.
But Hill cautioned that as volatile as oil prices have been in the last few days, it’s still too early to consider whether gasoline prices would have a detrimental effect on Southern Nevada visitation.
“You can put together packages that can overcome the cost of gas fairly easily,” Hill said after Tuesday’s LVCVA board meeting.
