NBAA-BACE Las Vegas — What to Know
Static Display at Henderson Executive Airport
A key element of NBAA-BACE is the static aircraft display, held at Henderson Executive Airport (HND) — approximately 20 miles from the LVCC. Most attendees visit HND for the aircraft displays and return to the LVCC for indoor exhibits. NBAA provides a shuttle service between venues. Plan at least half a day for HND if static displays are relevant to your business.
October Weather in Las Vegas
October is one of Las Vegas’s best months weather-wise — temperatures range from 65–85°F (18–29°C) during the day, cooling to 50–60°F at night. Comfortable for walking between the LVCC and nearby hotels. Light layers are enough for outdoor portions of the show.
Getting Around During NBAA Week
The Vegas Loop — Boring Company’s underground tunnel network — provides fast, low-cost transportation between LVCC halls. For Henderson Airport visits, NBAA operates official shuttles from the LVCC. Uber/Lyft surge pricing is common during peak morning hours (7–9am) and early afternoon when multiple shows compete for drivers.
