Travel Forum / Travel Types / Air Travel / April 2008Southwest
We have never flown with Southwest. We are looking at November flights from PHL or BWI to MCO... when do you think that schedule will be available. I would like to book online for 3 adults and 1 senior and the cheapest fares seem to be the "Wanna Travel"...since I am unfamiliar with this airline would the DING rates be any less or should I just stick with not downloading that software onto my computer. Anyone have DING downloaded?

Look at the currently available schedule. 2. Take the latest date there and subtract today's date. 3. Subtract that number of days from the date you want to travel Signaturejtc jtamchay@yahoo.com > >> We have never flown with Southwest. [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > 2.

Is that show airline still on tv? Donna K.

Richards No, the Airline show was cancelled, although repeats are occassionally shown. They say (provisionally) that the schedule will be extended on April 17. There is no harm in downloading Ding! However, the deals/specials aren't as good as they originally were. There is a small chance that you'll get something slightly better. It's pretty much hit or miss, however. > They say (provisionally) that the schedule will be extended on April 17. I doubt it will cover all of November by then. >> They say (provisionally) that the schedule will be extended on April 17. > > I doubt it will cover all of November by then. It didn't. The new set of schedules came out last Friday (April 18) and only goes as far as October 30. SignatureStop the chop by deleting it from my address. yes, I saw that and figure it will be May 18th before they extend the schedule into November.

Logically, every month, they add a month to the end of the schedule. >>>> They say (provisionally) that the schedule will be extended on April 17. >>> [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > >Logically, every month, they add a month to the end of the schedule. And tke one off the beginning.

Coincidentally, I intend to book travel from PHL to MCO tomorrow, but for a trip next month. Check US Airways before you book your air travel. US Airways' flights from PHL to MCO are pretty competitive. Try to get a non-stop flight. I also like Mr. Travel's idea about when to begin checking Southwest for flight schedules that meet your needs. > Coincidentally, I intend to book travel from PHL to MCO tomorrow, but > for a trip next month.

I should have also mentioned that Southwest generally has better fares than most carriers for last minute fares. However, when booking in advance, other carriers are generally competitive with WN's fares. The WN benefit is that if your plans change, there is no change fee, so you don't have to whine about why you think you should pay less than the agreed upon change fee. WN is also better for UM's (unaccompanied minors) for non-stop trips as WN doesn't charge an UM fee. Other carriers might charge $80 to $100 each way. I don't fly WN for a variety of reasons, such as preferred seating, no first class, no flights outside of CONUS, etc. |
