Southwest 72 hour sale

Agree with Fredo...........but I also have seen alot of my "usual" Nonstop flights........are now Gone,
or more Expensive.

We mostly get discounts on connecting flights.....(anybody want to be routed through Salt Lake to get to Vegas from the West Coast? Forpetesake! )
Or take a 6:15 Am or 9 pm flight to Vegas? ugh.

So, SW has wised up and taken the good flights away, at the best prices.

Little do they know...........I will happily change my Clock to wake me earlier to catch a 6am SALE Flight. Ha!

All too often airline ticket prices make no sense. I had work in Rockingham NC at the end of April. Flying from Denver to Charlotte or Greensboro would have been the most convenient choices as far as driving to my final destination. GSO was way over priced. CLT was better, but more than I wanted to pay. Denver to CAE (Columbia SC) was $140 cheaper than DEN to CLT and only about 30 minutes more drive time to Rockingham, so that's what I bought. The cheaper DEN to CAE itinerary included one stop both ways....at CLT! It cost $140 less to put me on an extra airplane going both directions...

I believe the early bird will transfer over.

Early bird does transfer over if you simply rebook your original flight under the same confirmation number. I don't think it transfers if you cancel the original flight and start anew by booking a new flight so rebook the original. I just did it (extending a Vegas weekend into a Vegas week - how sweet it that?). The kicker is that you can't really see it come over, as your new pricing doesn't reflect the EB you already paid for. However, if you click on the button to add, yes add, Early Bird to that flight, it will pop up a message that you already have it.

P.S. CLV: yes, what is up with all of the cheaper flights rerouting thru various cities thereby adding an hour to an hour and a half? No way, Jose, I'm rising early to catch the non-stop cheapo flights.
