Juggling Logistical Challenges Seamlessly

Managing transportation and logistics that moves thousands of hosted buyers between airports and more than a dozen hotels in Las Vegas brings significant logistical hurdles. The dramatic implosion of the Tropicana hotel, city-imposed road closures and Formula 1 Las Vegas Grand Prix congestion compounded the challenge. The team was also supporting the IMEX charity run and multiple in conjunction with events for exhibitors, adding layers of complexity to manage.

Fueling Flawless Delivery

Our Las Vegas team structured the multi-vehicle program with seasoned drivers able to navigate alternate routes around closures or congestion to move attendees seamlessly. The team’s strong, agile, and transparent relationship with the client and hotels supported success. The charity run was a smooth experience thanks to the PRA team for ensuring flawless registration, route permits and staffing. PRA also operated six in conjunction with events, providing a wide range of services from transportation and logistics to curating a custom “Hilton University” theme and a progressive menu and food tour – complete with passports – at the newly unveiled Fontainebleau.
