Boring isnt working: Inside Elon Musks Vegas Loop
Elon Musk's Boring Company has built a Vegas Loop system with ten stations, including two intended for Harry Reid International Airport. The airport segment is not yet operational, and passengers are currently shuttled by a driver‑operated Tesla on surface streets. A recent visit by YouTuber Ray Delahanty highlighted the lack of signage and described the airport service as a farce.
- ▪The Vegas Loop connects the Las Vegas Convention Center to multiple hotels via underground tunnels.
- ▪The planned tunnel to Harry Reid International Airport remains closed, with service provided by a human‑driven Tesla on regular roads.
- ▪Visitors have reported inadequate signage at the Loop’s airport stations.
- ▪The airport segment is marketed as a $12 taxi‑like service rather than a true underground transit option.
