SWA Is this a good price?

[tweetie]

Flying round trip for two from Norfolk, VA to Orlando will cost 443.00 (111.00 each way before taxes & fees), is this a good price for September? I was trying to wait to see if rates go down, but I am scared they will go up instead, and plus flying out on a Sunday morning, not that many flights and only one that morning that is non-stop. What do you think?

Hello~! As a devout frequent SWA traveller I can understand your nervousness. I would buy those tickets since it fits your needs and is the only non-stop that morning. Now if the price goes down further....you have options. You will have to check every day to see if there is a special or just pop on the Transportation board here on the DIS and people usually post when SW is offering sales. If the price drops....you can receive a "travel funds" voucher for the savings difference and apply towards your next trip. I am on SWA everyday since we travel down so often, and the fares right now are great. I snagged $59 for Oct from PVD-MCO....it just takes a little work and time. It's worth it.
Good Luck

I always fly Southwest out of Norfolk and that looks like a good price to me. I think last September, it was about $132 one way and in February it was about $135. (That's with taxes included.) February's flight schedules were awesome with a departure flight very early in the morning and a return flight late at night.

I'd grab it...our October tix are $190 each way from Nashville. :/

i would do it, the only way you could go cheaper was if you could fudge your dates to work with the 75 dollar each way.
