Airfare for late October trip

[Jersey Brian]

We are arriving on October 30th from NJ (yes, NJ week.....) We usually fly from Philladelphia because Southwest usually is cheaper with the "Bags Fly Free"... over the weekend it seems that all of the Southwest cheaper fares sold out.... does anyone know if they are truly "sold out" or are they holding back seats for future bookings.. also, if they are truly sold out - when is the best time for cheap fares for our 10/30 - 11/7 trip? MUCH APPRECIATED!!!

I saw completely sold out flights for my dates and then they became available hours later. We're also traveling in the late fall PHL<->MCO. Some prices even went down since they were announced last week! Just keep checking back.

ETA - I'm seeing some flights for your return which are as low as $81 one-way. They may not be the best times, but that's pretty cheap for SWA on that route and a Saturday return. And if you can fly out at 5:20 PM on 10/29 instead of 10/30, you can get a flight for $91.

I was thinking about locking in one of the $81 return flights and holding off on the other.... Thanks for the advice.
