Should I Give Up On Southwest?

Normally, I have no problem waiting for them to release their fares. However, we're going in July, which is a very busy time.

Southwest fares are obviously lower, but can also get booked up very quickly. Right now, Jet Blue has some decent fares. Think I should take the chance of waiting for Southwest and risk Jet Blue increasing their fares, or should I just book Jet Blue while they're still relatively low.

Hang in there! Good things come to those who wait

I'd probably hang in there one more day. I don't have a choice flying out of St. Louis. AA wants over $400 pp/RT flying direct. I've noticed the AA website has not shown any fare sales from STL to MCO for the last few days and their specials had also been running through June 9 only, so I'm wondering if they aren't getting ready to extend their reservations calendar also.

If you are happy with the Jet Blue rates and feel the waiting is a problem, then buy the tickets. If you can wait a few more days, then please wait.
