When will SWA announce mid-May flights??

[scottie]

Does anyone have any insight as to when SWA may announce their flights/fares for the second part of May 07'? For a while now it has been limited to flights no later then May 10th. We are really wanting to book tickets for our Disney Cruise and arent happy with Delta's fares this time around.

My hunch is it will be Thursday.
Many are guessing it will be Tuesday.

SW usually releases on a Thursday about 11am est

I gave up on waiting for SW and just booked flights on AirTran for June for the same price as SW's "Promotional Fare" for the same route.

Thanks for the info... I will be sure to keep my eyes glued to the SWA site

They've been predicting the release of dates of Jan 4, Jan 11, Jan 18, etc. Keeping my fingers crossed for this Thursday as well!

Any idea how far the schedule will go out to? thanks

Do you think the new dates will cover through mid-October? Our next trip is Oct 5-12.

No, they probably won't cover that far.

there are some when you go on but not from Philly.

I have no idea when the next schedule will be out. But I predict there will be at least 12 threads started on the DIS announcing it.

history (and my meticlous notes from last year) indicate probably 2nd or 3rd thursday of Feb.

I believe it will be within the 3rd full week of February.

Unfortunately, their lowest offerings of $59.00 one way probably won't be available until March or April.

That's okay.....the times I prefer to fly sell out pretty quick....will book and then wait for the lower price....

 

[emmabelle]

I believe it will be tomorrow and I'll be shocked if it goes another week.

 

[scottie]

We have never flown SWA before. What if we book in and then the price drops?

 

[bubba's mom]

if you keep the same flight, they will either issue a refund or voucher/credit (to be used within a year) if you call and ask....not guaranteed, but usually works

This happened to us for our December flights. I booked them in July for $800 from Buffalo as soon as they opened up. 2 weeks later I caught a sale for $521 for the 4 of us. I rebooked our flights with the same confirmation number and received a $280 credit to be used within 1 year of the original date of booking ( forced us to go back in March ). It was simple to do, we are going again in Sept and plan on booking as soon as the times open up.

 

[Jennyvelaz]

for the exact flight number, they will credit that much difference!

I am anxiously awaiting the opening of dates for mid-May!! We want the first flight out for seven of us so I want to book ASAP! It is killing me that it is opened to the day BEFORE we leave for an awesome price...I was contemplating leaving late on the 10th just to get the 59. one way!!!
