If a similar time frame is used by the hotel workers’ union in Las Vegas, sometime between October 17 and November 1 would be the deadline for a contract deal that prevents a strike.
With autumn being a prime time for meetings, conventions, and events in Las Vegas, a strike could affect the hotel service provided to attendees—including more than 10,000 members of the meetings and events industry arriving for IMEX America, happening from October 15 to 18 at Mandalay Bay, an MGM property. Another big business event coming in: The 50,000-attendee Automotive Aftermarket Expo from October 31 to November 2.
