somewhere between late spring and mid summer. It is usually 4-6 months out.

For this past year I booked seats for Dec. 7-14 at the end of July the checkbook says July 29th and I watch them close and got them the day they came out. I hope this helps....call me crazy but I keep it noted since we go about the same time every year. I'd look for them in the summer.

We are also looking for dates in November for SWA. We are going November 5 - 16, 2004. We will start looking in late April for our dates.

I seem to remember booking my November dates in June of last year. They had up to October for a few months before they opened Nov and then about a month later they opened Dec.

I booked SW last November 1-8 on or around June 26 and that would have been the first day they came out.

It seems like they open up dates about 5 months prior rather than 6 months.

Thanks for the heads up!!

I have scattered dates from prior years that indicate a certain consistency although not exact dates. For example, on 5/24/01, they opened up booking through 10/26/01 and then 7/24/01 opened it through 1/11/02. On 6/28/02 it was opened through 12/14/02. Probably by the time I get 3 years of history, they'll change their policy. LOL!

Also there's nothing to say the past will indicate the future.
