I sent an email to SWA yesterday. Maybe a I will call them today. would be a bummer if the non-stop goes away, AA would have the only non stop available.

It doesn't end 4/20. Looks like it is daily for about a month starting early March until early April, then goes back to Saturday only for most of April in May, goes back to daily for most of June and July, and then ends in early August through the end of the schedule in early October.

Don’t call SW! Just ask them on Facebook or Twitter. Leave a private message. They will help you out.

What Time On 2/8 Do New Flights Go On Sale?

Please forgive me as I am brand new to the SW board and am unfamiliar with SW. I have to buy a bunch of flights tomorrow (2/8) as soon as flights go on sale for a very popular October date in which the lower fares will sell out very quickly. Does anyone know if I should stay up until midnight ET or will the flights not usually load until the morning (ET)? Thank you.

It will be sometime in the morning. There is not "set time" though. The lower fares don't necessarily work you described, although I am having a hard time coming up with a very popular October date.

Despite the hype, I've never been able to get discounted fares on popular dates / weeks / destinations / seasons at schedule open. Hopefully you'l do better.

I saw the schedule through March 5 but have all the flights been loaded? I don't see some of the Saturday International nonstops (ie GCM, BZE, PLS)
Hope they aren't discontinuing those!

MSP/LAS nonstops seem to be a done deal starting in early Jan 2025

I wonder why as I flew the NS flight 8 times ( 4 R/T ) on various days of the week and it was always sold out.

The only thing I can think of is they only had one NS per day and the departure time varied and on some days was very early and other days very late.

Personally I won't book the last WN flight of the day, I have been stranded more than once when it was cancelled.

IMO if they ran this flight with a 9am - 12pm daily departure out of MSP and no later than 3pm out of LAS I bet it would do much better.

Hopefully they bring it back next schedule.
