Need last minute flight bad! Please help!

Hey gang,

I need to get a flight leaving out on Wed and returning on Sunday evening. If anyone knows of any websites with exceptionally good deals or a website with mis-quoted prices or anything, PLEASE let me know. I've looked at Priceline, Travelocity, but the prices are still too high for me. I'm looking for something between $350-400 if possible.

Thanks,
Regina

I will be departing Dallas and arriving in Nashville, TN. If you have any suggestions, that would be great!

Thanks,
Regina

You could always buy a Southwest voucher on eBay. The cheapest one for Buy It Now is $350. They are space available vouchers. You'd have to fly DAL through another city to get to BNA due to Wright restrictions. Not many options unless you have enough FF miles to burn a standard FF ticket on an airline.

Thanks for the info....the only thing is the times don't work....I will be at a seminar on Sunday afternoon, so I can't fly back until after about 5 on Sunday. Most of the reasonable flights I've seen depart in the morning.

Yeah, I know....the Wright Amendment is so annoying. I hope it gets overturned soon. I thought about SW, but I would end up spending alot more money since I would have to fly twice as much.

Hate to tell you booking without even three day advance is pretty much going to be expensive fares.

636 from Love and 641 for DFW round trip. It IS a discount fare since full fare Y is $998 return.

While I realize you are attending a meeting...prior planning would have saved money!

Push the trip back a week and fares are 452/457 (DAL/DFW) (getting you at least 7 days advance purchase) while another week it goes to 374/379 which is about as low as it seems.
