Still not competitive in summer 2017 - at least from Bay Area to LAS. Approx 30 days out UA and VX dropped weekday fares, and now I see they are further reduced within 7 days of travel. ��

WN went the opposite direction and now shows all flights at full fare, almost 2x others! In fact is cheaper for me to fly charter on my Sunday return than WN.

As NSX notes the intra-California fares are competitive and even more so if you prefer the secondary airports. But I have yet to see anything remotely close to competitive for Mexico, much less interstate.
