Yet another Southwest question

[phred52]

I realize that southwest points will be worth less in a few weeks.

So, I am toying with a few ideas for using up points, one of which involves flying the end of September, 2014. The dates are not available yet to purchase.

Does anyone have a feel for when a new set of dates might open up? Did new dates appear lately or is it going to be time for that to happen soon, like before the points devalue?

I know no one knows exactly, but for those who follow Southwest closely, you probably have a good idea what's what.

Thanks, guys!

Why?

Why?

They are increasing the number of points required.
