Bags To Go, a travel company specializing in connections between hotels and airports, has added the Sahara to its list of Strip resorts when the company offers its services.

Bags To Go conducts Transportation Security Administration-approved screening, checks the bag for the guests and ensures that the luggage reaches the home airport or final destination for $10 per bag.

The company also offers its services at the Luxor, MGM Grand, The Venetian and Palazzo, the McCarran International Airport Rent-A-Car Center, the Las Vegas Convention Center, and the Sands Expo and Convention Center.

Beyond McCarran, Bags To Go also connects cruise ship ports in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., and Miami with the Fort Lauderdale Hollywood International Airport.
