Looking at options of transfer from LAS to Bellagio, rather than taxi stand..

Appreciate it's not far, but worth it?

I said I'd price it up for a party of 6, with luggage, but the northerner in me thinks be better grabbing 2 taxi's off the rank.

How bad are the queues... Can't remember from last time..?
Arriving on the MAN flight on a Sunday..

Taxi for me, it's such a short journey a private car really isn't worth it IMO. Taxi queue can be long but moves quickly enough as plenty of them.

Taxi worked well for us when we stayed at the Bellagio.

Dito the above suggestions, taxi is the easiest and because of the short distance most convenient.
Unless you are wanting to impress the doormen at the hotel in which case you could pre book a limo! 8D

LAS to Bellagio by taxi $20 plus tip, six passengers will need two cabs. Presidential Limos $65 plus tip . Inc bottle of champagne, you get limo for up to an hour, it will take 6 pax and driver will go via Las Vegas sign for photos and stop at liquor store for supplies etc .Always found presidential limos professional and good service

Sounds fun, but bet 3-5 bags on top could be a issue..

Yes, they often say "at this time of day, its best to go that way" and go via the freeway, which is about $10 more. Having seen the simple direct route to the airport, I realise that I'd been tunnelled every time to Vegas.

Ahh done this before.... yep taxi is the more logical and cost effective route.. no fun though :P

Was out there a few years back with a group of lads and I approached the hotel before arrival and asked to 'borrow' one of their drivers in their escalades :w They were amazingly accommodating and the cost came to only slightly more than a couple of cabs between us. Worth it though y)
