With a three-week advance notice of travel, round-trip tickets on any airline you can think of offers inclusive rates of $409 (base rate is $238). This rate is valid seven days a week, based on seat availability (choose from 12 non-stop flights between ATL and Sin City just between AirTran and Delta). A nice feature of this rate is that there are no blackout dates to skirt around.
