Southwest Has Opened More WGA Flights Thanksgiving Weekend

[Maleficent Dragon]

Just a heads-up to check. Southwest has opened a lot of fares for me that were not opened initially on May 14th through yesterday. The nonstop flight I had booked has gone down, but the rest are very expensive! $350 ONE WAY on November 30th.

Your title is misleading. Southwest didn't add any flights.

I had been waiting for these WGA fare to open up for the time I wanted. Found my ATL to MCO flight at Thanksgiving. The WGA fare is about $80 cheaper than the Anytime fares, so I booked it.

Wrong.

They added a ton of WGA flights for DAL and OMA. They were not there on the 14th, they are there now. That is an addition.

I am glad you were able to get something you are happy with. Keep watching on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, your price may drop a little.

Our flight from DAL to MCO went down about 6000 points each so I rebooked and got some points back. I was hoping for an earlier flight, but the ones they opened up all have a stop, so we kept the later time, but it was less so that part was good.

I was able to get my sister (coming from another airport) to MCO on a new flight that was not previously available and it saved a little money as well.

Quick question...did they add more flights or are the WGA fares now available for flights that were on the schedule 5/14 with no WGA fares listed ?

For our trip from ISP to FLL I don't see any that additional flights were added to the schedule

I'm sorry, you are mistaken. There were no new flights added. Southwest simply opened up availability of WGA fares on flights already on the schedule. That's quite different from adding flights; I have never heard of Southwest adding a bunch of flights after their schedule is released.
