More flights?

[budafam]

We're looking at booking for the beginning of May with Southwest and right now there are only 4 flights from Milwaukee on that day. I'm hoping for a direct flight and there's only one available on that day (that arrives a bit later than we had hoped to get there). What are the chances that they will add more flights? We're 134 days out right now... thanks in advance!

Essentially zero. SWA releases its schedules closer to the travel dates than the legacy carriers, but almost never makes changes (adding or subtracting flights) once they do release their schedule.

I wouldn't count on them adding other flights, but wanted to say that a few months ago they had no non stops when I had booked a flight and then did wind up adding a non-stop. So while it isn't likely, it can occur.

Thanks, I think I'll go ahead and book the night before then... I'm not about to chance that
