Our flights went down $20 a person. I would have liked to have used that credit for the early-bird checkin but another Dis'er said they were told they could not do that.

man I guess OKC fares are not gonna budge for me, I am hoping to get a $99 fare but no luck yet lol....I check several times throughout the day

Thanks! When I checked earlier today, there was no change. Now, it's dropped from $116 o/w to $97 o/w. Not a whole lot each way, but I just bought R/T tickets for 6 of us. so you saved me over $200.00 and I got the flights I've been watching!

Thanks again!

Awww-thanks for thinking of me and looking out for me and all the others waiting for lower fares. I did get in on the sale so I guess that's all that matters. I'm just touched that my fellow Diser's are so thoughtful! Glad for your savings as well! Saving money on a vacation just raises your spirit more, doesn't it?! Thank-you!!!!

My flights out of Long Islando 115, went down to 89! Yea..
Funny thing I was going to cave and buy them 2 days ago,
But i was lazy and said I will buy them tomororw and the very next day they saved me a bunch of $ YEA!!

Just need our return flights!

 

[ClanHarrison]

Check your flights again everybody. Mine went from $77 to $67 today . That credit for our return flight is just growin' !

 

[Veals_Family]

Ok, I'm a bit confused. I too have bought tickets, and found that one leg of our trip in now lower than when I bought them. How does the credit work? Do I have to call them? Thanks in advance.

 

[DisneyClown]

I checked them and the flights still start at $74, however, the flights I booked have actually gone up!!! I have a feeling they will go down at some point though. That is how they get you to buy from them again- give you a credit so the next time you fly, you want to utilize the credit, so you book with them again. Thanks for the heads up though!

Sadly ours didn't budge at all but we are flying over the Memorial Day weekend so maybe that is why. I went ahead and booked the fully refundable fare since it was only about $40 more. Now I know we have the flight we want and IF it goes down later I can rebook. Our flight coming home we are using a Rapid Rewards Award ticket for the two of us.

Make sure you double check today. Mine just went down to where I wanted them.

I feel your pain. I'm out of Tulsa and I'm just not seeing the "luv" this year. When I went in December I was actually able to get my SW airfare down to $190. Of course, that was a solo trip and now that it's the whole family - I can't get it below $300. per person and that's with a lousy schedule.

I keep checking several times a day for my late June departure and July 11th return!!

I was originally looking for July 2 - July 11 and the fares weren't budging. I changed to July 1 - July 10 and snagged the $74 fare. If you have some flexibility, maybe you can get a better fare?

My dates are June 26th-July 11th!!

I always check the fair calendar for the entire month to see when it's cheapest to fly. With 6 of us (maybe 7 this trip) every little bit of airfare adds up!

 

[ClanHarrison]

This is not good & I'm gettin' worried. Southwest has raised all the rates for my dates. We may need to change airlines for our return flight. My outbound fare (which I scored for $67) has now risen to $85 (still pretty good IMO), but that nasty return flight rate that WAS $147....is now $152 !!!! It's the first time this fare has changed since being released in Dec. What does this say...other than this is a popular flight time/day? Can folks REALLY be booking at this $147 fare?

I realize we're returning after a holiday (4th of July) and a lot of folks are probably trying to fly home, but it's a Tuesday for cripes sakes .

I'm just hoping SW is doing some sort of fake out and it fails and they HAVE to drop this rate.

A girl CAN dream can't she?
