What Time Will the SW Fares be Released on the 14th?

[MinnieMSue]

Got a great price ($139) going from Columbus 11/24 but return 11/30 wanna get away only avail on nonstop flights but $273. Bummer but could have been worse.

 

[phillymummer]

I just checked my dates again for Sunday, 3 nonstop flights are already sold out- both WGA and business select!!

 

[Shea&Van]

I am pretty happy with my pricing. I paid $115 to/from MCO from BWI. A very good rate I think. Can't wait till mid-November.

Good luck everyone!

And done! $834 for three of us round trip philly/mco. $129 going down/ $150 coming back No early bird check-in. I'm okay with that. The only thing that bugged was the fact they changed the flight times from October. I had in my head the times I wanted and had to do a double take at the screen! LOL! I am flying out earlier than I had hoped on both days.
But, I'll just be grateful I got a decent price.

They changed our flight times out of BUF too. We had planned for an 8:00pm flight but The latest flight now is 3:30pm!!!! Cost down was $115 and flight back is $134.

I'm trying to add a companion pass to flights I just booked, and it's telling me they are sold out. But they aren't, I checked, and double checked. Wanna get away fares are still available. Has anyone had an issue with newly booked flights, not being able to add the companion? I guess in the past I've always added it later. As long as the flights don't truly sell out, I guess it won't be an issue.

 

[Maleficent Dragon]

Fares are being loaded now, some are available for booking.

 

[raider97]

UGH!! The prices out of HOU were high. I went ahead and booked since we are so close to Christmas. but I'll be watching fares hoping to rebook. Paid $1000 for 2 roundtrip. And used almost 100,000 pts for our other 3. Super sad!!

THIS!!! I've been on hold for about 15 minutes with them attempting to add my companion as well. They are telling me it's a "glitch" -- so, I'm still holding! My flights are still at $115 (for now), so I'm pretty certain they aren't sold out at this point.

A pita for sure!

 

[Minniekins]

Yikes, 100,000 pts? Wow that's crazy!

Well, I booked Dec 3rd for $148, and back home Dec 13th is $181 for the flight we want - last of the day, but I paid that with points. I used travel funds and cc for the trip down, so disappointed it's so high at $148, cause we won't be able to use any credits we might gget on that cause we gotta fly by Mar 16th and our next flight wouldn't be till at least(hopefully to DL first time!) in May. Oh well, I'm hopeful that the return trip with points will go down and we'll get back some good points! I am a huge SW stalker, so if it goes down, I will grab it!

Good luck to those still booking! Very surprised some flights are already gone, yikes!

Okay, thanks. I'll try again when I get to work. Sunday flight back from MCO, Jersey week, so I'm a bit nervous.

 

[Sherrkel]

Very disappointed - hoped to fly MHT to MCO on 11/29 and return 12/4 or 12/5 - NO wanna get away fares on 11/29 - I was on right when they opened. I'm very temped to cuss right about now !

I can't stay angry for long, I'm still going to Disney world during the Xmas season for the first time!
Booked 12/6 - 12/12 (the back up plan). Can't wait to see my favorite place in the world all decorated for the holidays!

I just booked 2 people, round trip Hartford, CT / MCO, Oct/Nov, for $460.00..................excellent price in my book!

Same here with the companion ticket, it's telling me they are sold out and to pick other flights. I did book my DH's ticket for $115 each way out of BWI and I'm his companion so I'll have to wait on mine. Hopefully I'll have no problems putting the companion ticket onto his ticket at a later date.

 

[lvdis]

Woohoo! I got rt non-stop flights from the midwest to California (SNA) for $714 total for 3 people, Dec 5 - 10th, with good times! $119 per person each way! I'm so happy!

 

[johnnyr]

OMG! $465.00 per person for late December! That's their Wanna Getaway price. I never paid more than $285.00.

 

[vtownpatty]

Managed to get $282 RT fares from Akron (12/21-12/29). Unfortunately, they changed flight times and we fly out at 5:30am - YUCK!

 

[Shea&Van]

Okay, thanks. I'll try again when I get to work. Sunday flight back from MCO, Jersey week, so I'm a bit nervous.

I think we are going the same week as you...11/8-11/13? Eventually I got it sorted out, but it took almost an hour on the phone! YIKES!

They started saying they were "sold out" to me too, but I could still see them, so I got transferred around a bit to different reps. Eventually they said to wait an hour so they could get everything sorted out and add more seats and try again. Just as I was about to hang up, the rep said to hold on they found a work around. This is airline speak, but she said she was able to "overbook using X" -- now granted I have no flipping idea what that means, but it totally worked!

I got my hubby's confirmation number about three minutes later and we are all set. I'm glad I was persistent because now it appears that our flight and the flight just before us (going down to MCO) is sold out. I'm sure it's not really sold out, but they probably haven't loaded enough seats. I suspect we'll see these open up in time.

Good luck DisPals...lots of pixie dust being sent your way for cheap flights and convienient times heading to/fro the happiest place on earth!

The fares were close to what I was expecting from Kansas City. November 21 was $167 and returning November 27 was $208. I am booked for those dates at OKW but was considering extending it 2 dats to Sunday, November 29 but the fare was $45 per ticket more, so I stayed with the original itinerary. Both flights are non stop, with the outbound earlier than I expected (5:45-9:00) but that means more time in the park on The first day. The last day, we are leaving at 3:30 instead of the expected 5:30 but that should still mean 3-4 hours in the park. I will periodically check for price reductions and if another, later, non stop was added on the return portion. As I am traveling with my 7 year old, I haven't decided whether I will buy early check in or try to check in with families. I really don't care where we sit but would like to be together.

 

[Delphinus317]

I completely forgot to set my alarm early this morning & just remembered today was the day when I got to work!

Anyway, I still got exactly what I wanted... First flight out of PHL & mid afternoon flight out of MCO for $256 ($128 each way).

My flights were similar leaving MKE - $160.00 on 11/21 and then $210.00 coming back on the 28th. I think the 28th was a little cheaper, but by the time I finished typing everybody's info in, they said the prices changed!!! And I'm a fast typer!
