No DINGs today??

I normally have my laptop on line with ethernet connection at home and get 1-2 DINGs everyday.

I am in RNO for 4 days and on line with a wireless connection. But have not got any DINGs so far today (it is noon Chicago time).

Are there DING fares and, for some reason, my wireless connection does not work with them???

No DING! offers so far today. A check of my portable URL shows nothing currently on deck, either.

And no weekend specials either. They're probably out celebrating the Wright Amendment

A DING! offer is on its way in just about eight minutes.

curb, you are always ahead of the game

By the way, I did get one later on today (with a 10am Central closing), so guess they just did not have any, or at least to any of the 10 cities I have in my profile, this morning.

Thanks.

Seems like they're also pushing the earliest travel date further out. Yesterday's and today's DINGs require at least a 7 day advance purchase; as recently as this past Thursday you could leave in one or two days.

No more $25 MDW-IAD DING either

This changes constantly depending on the offer.

This is true. I was hoping to snag some DINGS for travel early next week using expiring travel funds.

It seems to me there are not many valuable dings for this slow travel period, when some lagcy airlines lowered their fares on other market.
