There are 1,400 of them scattered around the airport grounds, and they will provide you with some quick entertainment until it’s time to board your flight. And who knows, maybe you hit one of those generous jackpots.

Explore Aviation Museum

Harry Reid International Airport is just one of few U.S. airports that also have a museum as part of its complex. Howard W. Cannon Aviation Museum focuses on the early history of aviation in Nevada, featuring 30 display cases with various aviation artifacts and several video presentations.
