How far out does SW open up fares?

[VickynMickey]

We aren't sailing on the Disney Wonder til March 2007, but keeping an eye on airfare. Just wondering how far out will SW post these fares. Thanks for all of your help

I would think usually by January.

I'm going to guess November 2006.

I think it is normally about 6 months ahead of time. For example right now they are only booking flights until June 9, 2006. So start checking in Oct.

Just trying to budget for this vacation!!! I will keep an eye out for those fares in October!!!
