Airfare "Dings" for Dummies?

[roscoepc1]

I'm sure this has probably been asked before, but please bear with me!

What is a "ding"?? I see everyone talking about them here, with regards to airfaes, and I don't understand! I don't fly often, so am clueless to stuff like this.

TIA for a simple explanation!

its a southwest airline notice of a sale ... you install it on your computer and set it to notify you when there is a southwest sale ...

Haha, I've wondered the same thing (what in the heck is a "ding"?) Now we know!

I'm glad I'm not the only one! I felt kind of stupid asking, but then I thought, why not ask?

The only really stupid question is the one un-asked! Good job!
