Viva Las Vegas! Fasten your seat belts, Eau Claire. Sun Country Airlines has added nonstop flights from Eau Claire to Las Vegas available now until Dec. 11.

While Las Vegas will always be known for its casinos, it has become a family fun destination as well as for bachelor and bachelorette getaways before the big wedding day. Many stars, including Adele, Lady Gaga, Shania Twain, and U2, to name a few have Las Vegas residencies, so if tickets are available, you could fly there to hear and see the show.

This new nonstop seasonal destination is in addition to three flights per week to the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport (MSP) with connections to Sun Country networks. Seasonal flights to Fort Myers, Florida, will return for the winter starting Dec. 15.

Travelers interested in making reservations can visit suncountry.com or call Sun Country reservations directly at (651) 905-2737 for the most up-to-date pricing. And, remember, what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas.
