Does anyone know when SW will post dings past Nov. 17th? I am looking for Nov. 25th. Thanks for the help

If you find a fare you can live with BOOK NOW. I wouldn't be shocked if DING fares either skipped that weekend or had very light availability.

DING has only been in existence for several months, so there aren't any historical records.

I, too, would book now. SW is running an internet system-wide fare sale until 8/1 or 8/4 - can't remember.

I booked DH and my tickets for our 11/28 trip to MCO at $89/way from Houston (where we'll be for Thanksgiving). That's a pretty good price anyway (lowest DING fare I've seen for that route is $74), and I was concerned that cost-savings around the holiday might be few and far between to begin with.

Good luck!

HI, I would also reccommend you to book a rate now also. I spoke with the customer service manager at SWA and was told that there was only a slight possibility that they would be discounting Thanksgiving week rates. I fly from Providence RI and almost all the flights were already full. I was able to fly 79.00 on way but had to pay more for return flight. I will end up paying 245.00ppRT. Which for Thanksgiving week I didn't think was too bad. Good Luck with your flights!

Thanks for the help guys. I will have to wait and see if they discount fares with the Ding program for my vacation time. I cant afford 6 tickets at the fare they have now. If they dont come down we will have to accept the fact that we will have to drive down. Yuck!! I didnt realize the ding program was so new. I was hoping to get info. from someone who watched the fares last year, but guess that wont happen. Guess we will pray for the best. Thanks again for the input everyone.
