Looks like Virgin America is trying to compete intra Texas directly with Southwest for $39

Wasn't sure if I should make a separate thread but looks like it fits well here

No, I think that Virgin is doing this to drive pax into Love Field.
Branson attracts an older demographic than their normal SFO and NYC routes. I think they will work hard to pull in folks in Dallas that would have never flown VA.

I don't know if it is Virgin America or Southwest matching the other - since neither has advertised it - but the $39 fare between SFO and LAS that is currently available until the end of schedule is just incredible.

Virgin America is 3 hours into an 8-hour sale with really good fares that Southwest appears to be matching, including the Tuesday and Wednesday before Thanksgiving!

Boo!
JetBlue has a $31 sale running today only for travel on October 31 only.
Maybe Southwest will match.

JetBlue 2-day sale covering November-early February. I noticed that most Super Bowl travel dates to and from Oakland are priced normally, not stratospherically as Southwest is still doing.
