Me tinks a great SW deal or huge DING might be on its way...

[lisaviolet]

Some dates "internet one way" column is suddenly missing. Hmmmm. Last time that happened a sale came.

And DING is flashing a cheeky, teasing "something is coming" kind of headline!!!

Hope I'm right. But don't hurt me if I'm wrong. We'll see tomorrow. Crossing my fingers for everyone. Come on Buffalo!!! Come on Orlando!!!

 

[jncvh]

I have already got a direct down for $69 and a return for $44 but can always book a second trip!

Here's hoping

 

[BitsnBearsMom]

I got the same tease ding last night.

and I already booked both of my trips. Oh well - hope someone can take advantage of what's to come!!

Just a small ding to Tampa. $50 one way in June.

 

[cabmom]

I needed that Ding and just booked Dh a trip to see his family in St. Petes!

$119 return!

Thanks TreesyB. Just rebooked our return (June 1) and saved $35 bucks for future use. Love SW!!!!

Also, there is a $25 Pittsburgh to Jacksonville. Holy cow! Anyone going to HHI or Orlando or Jacksonville, renting a car anyway, and doesn't want to drive the whole way. That's a great deal.

I could be tempted for a July or August DING. S

 

[BitsnBearsMom]

I was eyeing the June one but dh reminded me we are going in May and August already He said no more trips after that till March Break next year!! We'll see if I last that long AND he thinks after August we are going to wait until December of 2009 to go again funny guy!!

What is this Ding you are talking about? I am looking at flights in Sept. but there are non on the internet yet. What are their flights like? How do I go about getting flights from them? Are they good with infants and their things (like strollers)?

Ding is the downloadable program from Southwest that will notify you of any internet only specials. In order to book these great prices, you have to access the special rate through their Ding program. Ding specials can't be booked over the phone. To download the software go to Southwest's website.

We have our hotel for Sept...but, haven't booked flights yet.

We really don't want to drive to buffalo..would rather fly out of Hamilton or Toronto....

I am hoping that if we hold off..flights might get cheaper...lol.

 

[tigercat]

I followed the instructions but I am not sure that I did it right. How do I know if I have it or not? Nothing has shown up on my screen.

If you don't have a new icon like the tailfin of a SW plane on your screen, you don't have it. Did you put in a zip code where they asked?

I found the file in my Documents in my computer saying that it was a not recognized. I will delete that and start again. I think for some reason I used my postal code. Will use a zip next time.

I am not sure what you mean to use a zip code. We only have a postal code. Does this work? (I know, probably a dumb question)

I realize that we only have postal codes but they don't work when you're downloading Ding. Someone on this board suggested using the zip code of the US airport you use the most. That's Buffalo for a lot of us. If I remember correctly, their zip code is 14225. If you use that, it will work. Mine did.

[sammi]

That's what I did when DING first started....just use the Buffalo airport zip.
