Weekend E-Fares?
Does anyone know if NW has the weekend e-fares, similar to the NetSaver fares that United & American offer? Basically, every Monday or Tuesday they email you a list of cities with discounted fares just for travel that weekend.
Thanks in advance.

These were discontinued a few years ago. The only thing similar is their last-minute vacations "CyberSaver Packages", which include airfare and hotel and/or car rental.

The packages can be cheap
Just a note to say the Cybersaver packages can be a pretty good deal when combined with your choice of a hotel or rental car. You can fly by yourself, although it will raise the price of the ticket.
I've even skipped the return flight and rental car a couple of times. It was sure cheaper than the unreasonable one-way fare.

If you subscribe to NW email, a message comes every Wednesday listing special offers. On rare occasions, one of these will list cybersaver fares like the ones that used to be published weekly. Otherwise, you are out of luck.

Although NWA quit having the weekend webfares, watch the other airlines' weekly specials. If the O/D is right sometimes NWA will match those, but with very limited availability.

There was a time when Cyber fares earned EQMs. I used them back in 1999. Once they stopped earning EQMs, I stopped using them. I paid $500+ tax ($540) JFK-BKK and JFK-SIN in 1999.
