Detailed housekeeping checklists. Half-empty casinos. Reservations-only dining. No shows, nightclubs or sporting events. These are just some of the realities that travelers can expect when Las Vegas reopens for tourist traffic today.Like much of the country, the city effectively has been shut down to visitors since mid-March, an effort on the part of casino companies and local officials to slow the spread of Covid-19.
Without question, the most important aspect of reopening Las Vegas is reopening the hotels — people who are visiting from outside the city obviously need places to stay. At last check there were roughly 150,000 hotel rooms around the Las Vegas Valley; only a fraction of these will open right away. "None of us has any idea what demand is going to be," he said, noting that resorts and hotels that aren't opening right away likely are taking reservations for stays starting July 1."We're starting slowly and will gradually go from there."
Two other pluses: Many hotels will roll out keyless entry programs to minimize queues at the check-in desk, and most will reopen with free parking — a longtime Vegas amenity that gradually disappeared over the course of the last two years. CNN's Richard Quest goes inside the Four Seasons Hotel New York to see what steps they are taking to keep guests healthy during the coronavirus pandemic.
Sure, the casino floor will still have your favorite games. Yes, there still will be opportunities to rake in jackpots. Odds will not change. "You'll still be able to play your favorite games in the casinos, but the scene will be different," said Broome, from Caesars."Safety is our No. 1 priority, and we're going to do whatever we have to do keep it that way."
To make potential visitors even more comfortable, some casinos were considering adding plexiglass and acrylic barriers to certain table games to protect dealers from players and players from each other. Other dramatic changes at restaurants around town will include masked servers, disposable menus, and, at least at some eateries, utensil-and-napkin set-ups that are wrapped in plastic and certified to be clean.
Herd immunity. We need our bodies to make antibodies or we will never get past this virus which isn’t going anywhere.

Shame on CNN
2nd video of 'FutureLearn | Free online courses with certificate' series.
Not funny dear
Well, the restaurants were just 'shuttered' and not 'shattered', ... so they got rest.... i guess they're ready to be opened again. But remember that at least 1 day a week, all restaurants should be closed. Buy double the previous day. homeDelivery.
Lap dancers are going to struggle with social distancing measures!
Cnn covers the protests and rioting for 10 days. Literally 10’s of thousands of people, herded together with no masks. They never cared about no masks for the last 10 days. And now it’s a big deal? That’s why CNN is the king of fake news
if you guys want to learn drawing please sunscribe this channel and watch video...
CNN predicts. Should be their new name.
Turns out, Trump was right all along and the media knew it
Will still be a shit hole, possibly a lot nicer without all the filthy people that go there.
BLM is bullshit!! All Lives Matter...get that in your heads!Are they going to de fund the cops in Vegas? Har..har...I will bet you 100 to 1 that the 'peaceful protesters' will pay a visit to Vegas & 'remodel' it to look like Baltimore! But of course, I'm a RACIST!!!
Talking about change....If Elmer Fudd looting shooting 1967 In 2020 has his gun taken away then surely Martin Luther King 1968 wants you to take a look at Stone Mountain Georgia 🇬🇪 . Well I am jist well I am jist a saying!

This story is incongruent with the protesting & rioting stories. Sorry. It just doesn't work for me any more. F U. CNN.
It's just a matter of time
Looks real safe... only a handful of masks in whole video and on the employees.... good luck to the medical community
I saw the videos, it looks the same.
