Of course the biggest red flag is paying for your ticket in cash. There is no way I would take a sum of cash with me flying, the potential hassle factor is too great even if 99% pass through w/o incident. It's a money tree for the feds, and they don't need much "evidence" for seizures:


    A) United States v $215,300 U.S. Currency (882 F. 2d 417 (1989) Ninth Circuit

    In a civil forfeiture action, there was probable cause to believe $215,300 of an airline passenger was involved in narcotics trafficking, due to these indicators:
    • carrying large sum of cash;
    • canine alert for presence of narcotics on the currency;
    • passenger’s attempts to avoid detection;
    • passenger’s ticket was issued by travel agency known to have issued tickets for other travelers who had narcotics related currency;
    • passenger’s nervousness;
    • and passenger was bound for well-known center of illegal drug activity.

    B) United States v $91,960 U.S. Currency (897 F. 2d 1457 (1990) Eighth Circuit

    In a civil forfeiture action, there was probable cause to believe $91,960 of an airline passenger was involved in narcotics, based upon these factors:
    • large amount of money in a briefcase, beneath torn phonebook pages;
    • a notebook appearing to record drug transactions;
    • the suspect provided inconsistent explanation as to presence of money, purchase of case, and his arrest record;
    • dog sniff test indicated briefcase had been near narcotics;
    • suspect was convicted of distribution of marijuana recently.

    for more examples follow:

    Q. Will I be delayed during screening if I am carrying large amounts of cash?
    A. TSA does not restrict passengers from carrying cash through our security checkpoints. However, when TSA discovers a passenger carrying a sum of cash that appears to be in excess of $10,000 and the passenger is traveling to a location outside of the United States, TSA may notify U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to ensure compliance with international currency-reporting requirements. Also, TSA may notify law enforcement officers if cash is discovered during the security screening process that appears to be related to criminal activity based on factors such as the quantity, packaging, circumstances of discovery, or the method by which it is carried.


    Thats from the tsa website.I always bring cash when i go to vegas and i normally take 10-15k when i go,and have never had any problems or be questioned about it.

    If you have a BOA account, Simply have them give you cashiers checks made out to you. Then go to the BOA in vegas and cash them. If your going with a few people, spread your cash out between the bunch.

    Or you can go Ganster....

    Put cash in a fedex box and send it to your hotel the day you leave. Over night it, so it arrives the next day at your hotel.

    But I would probably go with the safest route. That being wiring the cash to the Rio.
    If you have a BOA account why don't you just withdraw the amount from the bank when you get to Vegas? Why get a cashier check? This is the dumbest advise I have ever heard. Just go to the bank in Vegas.
