Anybody from the UK been to or are planning to go to Atlantic City?

[InTheNeutralCorner]

Distances of the 3 major airports to Atlantic City (AC):
Philadelphia Airport, Pennsylvania (PHL) = 65 miles
Newark Airport, New Jersey (EWR) = 110 m
New York Airport, New York (JFK) = 135 m
There is the Atlantic City International Airport (ACY) but I don't think that would be cheaper than flights going to the above three but you can try.

From the three major airports, flights to PHL may be cheaper but there is no regular scheduled shuttle between PHL and AC. To go to AC from PHL you may have to take a bus going to Philadelphia Center, another bus to AC and then a cab going to your destination. The most convenient way would be to take a private car service with a driving distance of 65 min and rate approximately $ 105. Maybe with all the extras that you will have to pay to go to your hotel, booking a flight to ACY might not turn up bad after all.

To get cheap hotel rates, try kayak.com or hotwire.com. The problem with the later website is that they will have a very limited listing for hotels in that area and you won't know the name of the hotel that you are booking until after you booked it. You will just have to rely on the hotel star rating which is accurate. This has saved me a lot of money but you will not always find there what you are looking for.

I hope this helps.
