Getting around Reno

Your cheap flight to Reno isn’t the only way to reach this Nevada town without breaking the bank.

You can get anywhere in downtown Reno on the Ride buses. 

What is good to know if travelling to Reno?

• Spend the cash you saved on your cheap flight to Reno at one of the city’s beloved gaming institutions. Las Vegas may be the indisputable gambling capital of Nevada, but Reno plays a close second with its impressive array of casinos, entertainment complexes and luxury hotels. If you’re looking to cash in your chips at the city’s most famous casinos, head to the Atlantis, the Peppermill or the Grand Sierra. No trip to Reno is complete without playing the slot machines on the floor of one of these casinos (if you’re of age, of course), so be sure to bring your lucky charms and your quarters. 
• Pop culture junkies booking flights to Reno will recognize the streets of Nevada’s fourth largest city from its appearance in a slew of movies, television shows and hit records. In addition to serving as the setting for Comedy Central’s hysterical mock-reality show, Reno 911, Reno plays a substantial role either as a major plot point or the setting of such films as “Sister Act”, “Kingpin”, “The Misfits” and “Pink Cadillac”. Music legends Woodie Guthrie, Tom Waits, Johnny Cash and the Grateful Dead have all referred to Reno in some of their most beloved ballads and popular songs, and popular artists Kanye West and Beck have either filmed videos or mentioned Reno in one of their Top 40 hits. 
• Reno is hoping to host the 2018 Winter Olympic Games (its neighbor Lake Tahoe played host to the Winter Olympics in 1960). With its pristine slopes, excellent athletic facilities and gorgeous mountain scenery surrounding Lake Tahoe, Reno seems a fitting choice for the winter games, as well as an ideal locale for a winter getaway. Book your flight to Reno for the months of December through February to take advantage of the best alpine, cross-country skiing and snowboarding conditions at Squaw Creek or Spooner Lake, two of Lake Tahoe’s favourite ski resorts. 
• Art enthusiasts and gallerinas are snapping up seats on flights to Reno to check out the city’s hot Art District. The streets of the district stem from the banks of the Truckee, and the galleries, lofts and coffee shops along First Street and Virginia Street make for ideal strolling backdrops.
