Are there any good memorial weekend flight sales?

Thanks

I was on DL's website this morning....I think I remember seeing a heading for Memorial Day Weekend specials.

DL does indeed have some fantastic fares available on their website and if you are a first time purchaser, you receive a bonus 5,000 miles. Tickets must be purchased online by 5/24/2001.

Hello FTers,

I saw some US holiday weekend fares on the US webpage using the "flexible" feature, most appeared to be leaving Fri. or Sat. from the East and coming back from the left coast (I mean the west coast) on Sun. thru Tues.

Flight selection was not great. I do not think that there was any announcement on the webpage.

A far cry from $156 RT from ORF-SEA in 1996( and upgradeable with NA upgrade certs also).

Cheers,

Va.SquireFlyer

Sorry, I forgot to give the most important piece of information:


$299 RT fares

As a very frequent flyer, I'll be at my favorite destination over Memorial Day weekend: home!

AA is having an official Memorial Day weekend sale on AA.com.

Warrenlm

Yes, AA.com is having a sale. Good luck on keeping your patience while trying to find flights on sale, though.

The system is set up for you to go all the way through flight selection only to learn...you guessed it...not this flight, try again! By the time you get to the page where you can ask, "did I get the sale fare", you've gone through all the steps of dates, times, citypairs, flight choices, then you can ask if the quoted fare ..which you see...is a sale fare.

Makes you just want to try and try again.

You know it's funny. I use to be a flight attendant for Northwest a year ago. I swear every holiday there was a fare sale. And now that I'm trying to build miles, of course neither NWA, or CO has a fare sale for the holiday this weekend.

SFO-DEN is only $415. 20.75 cents/mile.
Great mileage run.

Considering the non-Memorial special fare is $500+ from SFO and a whopping $800 from our local airport of Eureka, we burned 25,000 miles for my wife to go visit her mother this weekend.

What is going on with Denver?

Lots of US Airways e-savers for Memorial Day weekend:

Ok, I'm going to ask this again, why is every other major airline having a fare sale except NWA,CO, and AM West? There flights arent' that full. I really don't get it. Like I previously said, I use to be a flight attendant for NWA, and EVERY holiday there was a fare sale.
