Southwest Ding - Specials on Wednesday!

[FinallyBoughtDVC]

Yeah for me! I just rebooked our departure from LI at the end of Sept and saved $45. Now, if the return flight for early October would show, I'll be thrilled!

Thank you all so much! I found this thread by mistake and all of your tips and info were so helpful (especially doing the cancellation side by side with the purchase).

I wish good luck for everyone else!

Again, will some kind soul look to see if there is a BDL - MCO DING?
I will be home for the next ding, I hope.
TIA!!
Kris

Nada.

Good for you - glad someone could use one of the Dings - the rest of us are waiting "patiently" for our "Birthday" Dings!

 

[pigletto]

O.k... so I can't use those Dings unless I add a day on to our trip or leave a day earlier. Sigh.
Think I am just going to book now.
Or go with Delta and their yucky layovers. Decisions Decisions.

keep in mind according to cnbc delta could fold between now and then..if using anyone other than SWA..you might want to consider the travel insurance

Personally, I vote for adding a day!!

Delta will most likely change your flight anyway.

 

[ding~a~ling]

so 3 dings down and 2 to go if that other post was accurate

nothing into oct and no orlando for mht yet

so far this party isn't living up to all the hype of the past week

 

[eaglerock]

HAven't received a single Ding today. DING keeps timing out and breaking connection.

any suggestions?

when was the last DING featuring Philly & Orlando?

 

[Joan S.]

Hi, I missed the 3rd DING!! I swear I walked out the door to grocery shop about the same time the DING came up! Anyway,did anyone get any PVD to MCO??? Thanks, Joan

I took your advice gang and booked with southwest anyway.
I am still very pleased with no baggage charges.. less likely scheduele changes and non-stop flights

But I still maintain that Southwest throws horrible birthday parties

So what was your deal??? I'm jealous.

 

[pigletto]

No deal.
I just paid the "wanna get away" fare. $1026.00 for four of us return from Buffalo.
It was a wedding gift from my mom so I really wanted to save her some money if I could but she had already told me that a thousand was fine.
I'll just keep checking until we go to see if I can snag a ding that saves her some money.

Source please!

Delta is NOT folding between now and the end of the current SW schedule. (there are VERY few things I am sure of, but I really don't think the Bush Administration is going to let an airline FOLD and loose those jobs between now and the election LOL! The Bush Administration has shown they are for supporting airlines)

This is what I found on CNBC posted today
Delta sees second-quarter profit, plans more cuts
HICAGO (Reuters) - Delta Air Lines Inc <DAL.N> said on Wednesday it expected to post a profit in the second quarter, excluding special items, and plans to cut domestic capacity by 13 percent in the second half of 2008.

If find this actually very encouraging

If you are going to post "scare" statements please link to sources.

 

[dvc at last !]

I need Buffalo - Orlando
October
nothing ...

 

[CJ]

I swear they're TOYING with me There's a Ding for the opposite of what I need and this is the 2nd time it's happened! When I want to go from Buffalo to Orlando, there's a DING from Orlando to Buffalo...... and when I go from Orlando to Buffalo there's a DING the other way!!!

 

[smacky1]

These first 3 dings have not been that great....or at least not for all the hype. I wonder if the last one will be a big grand finale to this birthday bash??

 

[Goofy22]

Did anyone recieve any dings yet? I was at work all day and just got home and have none on my computer!??? And if so what did you get? I'll be so mad if I missed a good ding but I had to goto work!! Were there any dings yet from PHL to MCO? and what kind of deals did those of you that got deals already get? And when can I expect the next DING???????
