Went live again around 7:30am Eastern. Saw few, if any, fares less than full fare around Easter at least for my routes. Tough out there.

Great success. At 4:20 AM PST (same time when we started in July, after that extension) I was able to find unbelievable cheap flights to DCA (from MDW) - for the spring vacation with kids. We scored some other good prices to/ from SLC for our spring trip as well.

Trying to find flights to cancun out of BWI for april = only full fare. Do you guys think southwest will open up normal priced flights or remain at a super premium? Between united gouging everyone out of IAD, I guess Southwest caught on.

Based on previous experience, I think we are stuck with full fare - at some point, they may open up some lower fares but they will still be insanely high.

This is a tough time to be a DC area based flyer.

New schedule is out, unfortunately they are still playing games with some WGA already blocked out for (IMO) the best flight times on Sunday 4/30 TPA/MSP

What's odd is Saturday 4/29 is not blocked out and very cheap.

We are currently accepting air reservations through July 10, 2023. On December 15, 2022 we will open our schedule for sale through August 14, 2023. This date is subject to change! Please check back frequently.
