GetAway Finder?

Has anybody tried the Southwest GetAway Finder?
Mrs. ftnoob and the awesome netbook that I bought for her (which happens to be the computer I use over 95% of the time) are both out of town. The computer I am using today has far fewer Southwest-specific ....... Plus rules in place, which led to my stumbling upon this GetAway Finder. Judging by the host domain of the logo displayed above, I'm thinking this is a third party product that SWA has licensed.

When I try to use the tool, the "Loading the search results..." overlay never closes, so I cannot view any of the search results teaser balloons displayed on what looks like a Google maps image. It could be a browser compatibility issue, but I have not yet tried it in any "secondary" (for me) browser.

I haven't found any press release or SWA blog post about this. It is, however, mentioned on the "What's new: January" page.
