Las Vegas, NV (KXNT) - In a year that's been more about "stay at home" than see the world, Las Vegas was named the top domestic destination site for 2020 by travel website Priceline.com. 

The top five spots were:

 1) Las Vegas

 2) Atlanta

 3) Dallas

 4) Houston

 5) Orlando

News of the Priceline honor comes on the heels of another down report from McCarran Airport, where passenger traffic for 2020 is down more than 50 percent from 2019, due to the effects of the shutdowns brought on by the coronavirus pandemic.
