SW dings from Buffalo-how often

[disneyfan2]

I am waiting for a travel vocher from SW which i hoped would be here last week but is late. There was a Ding for flights in Oct a few days ago, and since then the rates have gone up $40 pp each way. So, i know i will get the vocher monday now that the rates are up . What are my chances of getting another Ding rate from Buffalo in OCt. Do they ever repeat Dings, or has anyone seen repeat dings for the same dates?

I have seen repeat dings but one thing I have noticed is Ding rates for Orlando and Vegas out of Buffalo seem to be few and far between these days.

thats what i thought, hopefully they will have another soon, or drop there prices.....

Even though there have not been many dings available, I was just looking at flights for September and they are sitting at $79.00 and $99.00 during the week....not a bad price for these days at all! Hope you find something that works for you!

well if i can get a rate like that for Oct or Nov then i will rebook my trip originall booked the 2nd week of Dec. Otherwise, i will postpone til Jan. The Dec rates for my dates are over $300+ pp and that is with the worst flight times for us. I would hope that i could get a Ding or lower rate

Did you get your voucher yet? I called last Monday for mine....still waiting! (but I expected to)

they told me mine was issued July 25th, so it has been over 2 weeks. But i figure with our Stat holiday in Aug it will probably delay the process a week
I hoped it would be here today so i can finally book my trip. I am expecting to have to cancel my Dec trip as although i had booked back in Mar i could not book the flights until i got the vocher, now the Dec flights are double what they were before. So i am having to rebook either Oct or wait ti Jan. Hopefully i will get a good rate when they release the Jan dates next week.

Did they tell you how long it would take. she told me 1 week maybe upto 2.

i just got my voucher today, so it took alittle over 2 weeks including the holiday. Now all i need to do is wait for a drop in rates for either Halloween time or Dec then i can finalize my trip...

Great! I guess I'll look for mine by early next week.

Dings out of BUF are few and far between. Usually if there are Dings it's for mid-week travel. A lot of Canadians keep the flights full.

I like when using Southwest ther are no fees to change flights.

Another reason I like Southwest.
