[canwegosoon]

Here we go again...FEB 3rd?????I am happy for those waiting for end of JAn., but this is a little crazy . Does anyone know if it is going to be another month?

 

[dbertola]

I sure hope not. I need Feb 17-24. They are driving me crazy.

*whew* FINALLY!!! i got my january air booked... whatta relief! but unfortunately it was NOT as cheap as i'd have liked... $230 round trip is HIGH! we paid $100 rd trip in aug/sept! oh, well, i'll still keep my eyes open for ding fares!

What cruel and unusual punishment.

I just need it to open up one more week. I guess I'll sit patiently waiting for it to open as I moniter every other airline that flies that way too.

 

[madge]

Fingers crossed that they come out before you leave!

they did and I got it!! I booked 24 tickets this afternoon, and I was able to get the internet fare for 22 of them, LOL That price beat the group fares price by $50-60 per ticket.

whew!

Now I have to pack for my own trip, LOLOL!

 

[gigi1313]

woohoo!!! i am happy for you madge! that's great news! i was unable to get internet special for our outbound but since i had a major credit from airfare reductions from our august trip, it's okay with me...

How disappointing! I found a rate of $278 on Aitran for President's Week. I've been holding off to see if SWA will be better, but I'm getting tired of waiting. I guess I'll go ahead and book Airtran, but I was really hoping to be able to campare it to SWA's rates. Don't get me wrong though, I'm very happy for those of you that were able to get what you wanted! Happy vacationing to all of you!

 

[Muffy]

Great for everyone that needed late Jan or early Feb. When will they release the rest of Feb? I cannot wait much longer! This is absolutely murder!

 

[Tink10]

Believe it or not Southwest went to the EXACT date I needed!! I was able to book a return flight! YEA!!!

Me Too!!!

I'm coming home on Feb 3rd & was able to grab the Chicago - MCO RT for $115 - TTF's = $45!!

 

[Caren90]

Why is SW trying to kill me?

 

[Boo'sMom]

Why is SW trying to kill me?

I know......

How about Presidents' Week SWA???

Anyone have any clues when they'll open up more dates? This is silly.

 

[kelleigh1]

Woohoo!! I was able to book our January trip at less than $65 each way. Total for hubby and I, roundtrip with taxes and everything - $310.

Not bad, not bad at all!!

That's what happened to me when they posted new fares last month. They went through Jan. 9th and we're flying on the 15th. Just glad that I've got airfare now...and at a great price.

gigi - so glad you got your Jan flights.

My Mother-in-law needs Feb 8. She's flying to Tampa a few days before the rest of us to visit friends before joining us at WDW. We are all booked on Song but we were looking for SWA so that she wouldn't have to go to LGA or JFK by herself. One of us kids (three sons, two daugher-in-laws) could easily drive her there.

Come on SWA release those dates.......PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

woohoo!!! i am happy for you madge! that's great news! i was unable to get internet special for our outbound but since i had a major credit from airfare reductions from our august trip, it's okay with me...

Of course, I'm second guessing myself because the tickets are $10 each way cheaper this morning than they were last night I was able to get ticket #23 reduced by $40, LOL...

I still can't believe that I was able to get so many of the seats at the internet fare. Unfortunately, the people that are traveling expected me to get the tickets much cheaper, since they know I am so good at booking airfare on the cheap

24 people on the same flight over a long holiday weekend? I think that $199 for non-stops at the perfect time for our youth event (see my signature) is pretty darn good....

The whole time I was booking the flights, I was giggling to myself, LOL....there are at least 3 other churches in the area taking kids to this youth event over MLK weekend, and I got all the cheap fares....

 

[Jo-Anne]

Well our outbound from Buffalo to MCO is Feb 3, so I grabbed 4 tickets on the night time non-stop for $87 each, but was upset that the morning non-stop was unavailable! Oh well, will keep watching...and now have to wait to ensure we get back on Feb 12th! Can't believe they only extended by a month! Probably waiting to see how the oil costs go to see how to adjust their pricing! But it still feels good to be "half the way there!"

 

[Shelby5514]

What's going on here? When are they going to release the rest of Feb.???

 

[boomhauer]

I'm waiting too - Looking to fly out February 4, and they're only booking through the 3rd right now.

 

[Poohbear123]

What's going on here? When are they going to release the rest of Feb.???

I don't know what to do, so I think I will fly to MCO on the third. I wanted to fly on Sunday, but if nothing comes up what else is there? And besides, the price might go UP, so I think I will jump on this.

I am giving up!!!
