Las Vegas Strip resort casinos add outrageous 'new' fee
The Las Vegas Strip has become the land of added fees and this may just be a sign of things to come.
Las Vegas has taken its success as an excuse to jack up prices.
All the major casinos on the Las Vegas Strip, for example, charge for parking. Yes, certain loyalty level members get exempted as do people with a Nevada license (in some cases), but parking used to be a free perk designed to get people into a casino.

Both Caesars (CZR) and MGM Resorts International (MGM) have adopted this policy while also charging hefty resort fees. Again, top-tier loyalty program members don't pay resort fees with either company, but most people do.
Las Vegas has been booming and hotel occupancy rates have been high, but prices have increased all over the board.
