Unfortunately, the date has pushed back to November 15, 2018 for June 7, 2019.
We are currently accepting air reservations through April 7, 2019. On November 15, 2018 we will open our schedule for sale through June 7, 2019. This date is subject to change! Please check back frequently.
Sorry Folks!

Better take a look again. I just checked and get the November 15 date for the next opening of future inventory.

I was thinking it might be a cache issue so I used 2 different Pc's cleared history on 3 browsers, tried my cell and tablet..........all say 9/27

I even tried my worked laptop via the VPN ( which I never use for personal stuff ) and it says 9/27

I just did the same and get the November 15 date. This is a SWA error, with different segments of the website giving different results. From the menu at the top of page (on computer version of website), I am clicking on "Flight" then "Flight Schedules" and get the November date.

If, however, we navigate to Travel Tools, it does indeed give the September date as you note. However, if you click on the "view flight schedules" link under Travel Tools/Plan Your Trip, you get the November 15 date. I assume that SWA's IT folks haven't gotten around to updating the date on the Travel Tools page.

Perhaps Nov. 15 is an internal projected release date for Hawai'i flights

Wow! You guys found out about schedule extension. Is that error on WN computer system. Geez!

I just went onto entire Southwest website and it's says November 15, 2018 for next new schedule extension.

The "Travel Tools" cover page still gives the September 27 date noted by flyer4512. I know its unbelievable that there is a glitch or error on the SWA website... have never seen any problems of any kind there previously. Do we win a prize?

Well, Southwest is about to get a letter from me. EWR-FLL is permanently done. As is FLL-IAD.

Sad, sad day. I’m now stuck as a JetBlue customer.

Official writeup from Southwest:

https://www.southwestaircommunity.co...ble/ba-p/80549

And yep, FLL just saw two big reductions. My guess is that WN figures the other area airports can handle that traffic or else loads were really bad.

in good FLL news, FLL-SJO is now a -800. First non HAV -800 I believe in the system internationally. Also, all 3 FLL-HAV flights now -800s!

FLL-LGA goes from SaSu to SU only! If you're going to drop 300 seats to EWR, you'd expect to replace them somewhere, right? ISP is still 1X (2X Sa)...they really don't want me as a Customer anymore, eh? Been loyal since 2005. Guess I'm switching to the competitor.

Maybe WN couldn't handle the inventory of 350 wheelchairs each in IAD and EWR and only 7 in FLL.
