Hawaii is coming!

Big announcement for tomorrow.

You will see PHX-HNL, OGG, LIH, KOA.

Let the speculation begin.

Did you read the article? GK said maybe 2018. Not anytime soon. Maybe 2 schedules away

What are WGA fares? And if schedule is loaded but not all fares, does that mean it might be better to wait a few hours until everything is loaded for fear of booking something suboptimal?

Yes. It is unlikely that many flights or even fare buckets sell out in the first few hours, even for popular holiday travel destinations.

Still says Nov 3 on the SW homepage for me. And can't see calendar for booking past that either. Driving me nuts b/c I'm sitting in Paris hotel room for an hour to book xmas flights.

I feel like I read somewhere that there is a problem booking from outside US. Can anyone update about that? Or is it just with the mobile app. I can VPN but it goes slowly.

I'm not sure of problem booking outside US, but I have same issue. Still waiting to load.
