US – Las Vegas celebrates passing 40m tourist milestone
By 菲尔 -18年2014月XNUMX日
Las Vegas reached a historic milestone, exceeding 40m visitors for the first time.
内华达州南部的旅游业持续扩张，游客量连续十个月增长，其中许多月份创下有记录以来的最高纪录。
The “Entertainment Capital of the World” has surpassed its record for annual visitation, drawing more than 40m people with two weeks remaining of the calendar year. Current pacing suggests the destination could approach nearly 41m visitors by the end of the year. The previous record was set in 2012 with more than 39,727,000 tourists.
“Las Vegas couldn’t have reached this milestone without the continued investments of our resort partners, and the more than 40m people who came to experience all the destination has to offer,” said Rossi Ralenkotter, President/CEO of the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority (LVCVA). “Ongoing developments in the destination, including new, renovated and rebranded resort properties, exciting new attractions, world-class entertainment, incredible culinary offerings and more are what keep first-time visitors and loyalists returning to Las Vegas time and time again.”
2014年，拉斯维加斯的直接国际航空服务有所增加，而加拿大和墨西哥被证明对游客人数的增长起了重要作用。
旅游业在内华达州南部和拉斯维加斯山谷的经济中起着至关重要的作用，每年创造超过45亿美元的收入，并为376,000个当地工作岗位提供支持。
To celebrate the 40m visitor milestone, as only Las Vegas can, the destination created a series of priceless, ‘Only in Vegas’ experiences and surprised unsuspecting visitors with Las Vegas entertainers, including Penn and Teller, Carrot Top and Claire Sinclair, presenting the one-of-a-kind experiences. The giveaway items included: incredible suite upgrades at Hard Rock Hotel & Casino and Palms Las Vegas, dinner for four at CRUSH eat, drink, love at MGM Grand Hotel & Casino, thrill-seeking SkyJump experiences at Stratosphere Casino, Hotel & Tower, VIP beauty makeovers at Michael Boychuck’s COLOR Salon at Caesars Palace and much more.
