We might be coming at this from different angles, but what I'm seeing is plain as day on the website, there are 3 fare options. When the cheapest one is sold out, one will only have the more expensive fares, which are both higher than HAL. Only Southwest and their revenue management system knows how many seats are available at the lowest fares.
