CNN: Travelers flying Southwest Airlines out of Las Vegas can take advantage of McCarran Airport's new SpeedCheck Advance program, which allows fliers to check their luggage at the hotel. For $20, passengers can hand three bags over to a transportation company at the hotel desk and print their boarding passes from a kiosk at the same time. The transportation company screens the luggage, then routes it to the airport and onto the plane, allowing passengers to go directly to security.
