Southwest released details of their newest fare sale today. While “Southwest” and “fare sale” might not sound exciting because it seems like they have one every week, this one is different. As a low fare carrier, the sale makes their low fares even less, and this is a REALLY GOOD sale, with REALLY GOOD prices that they only do about twice a year. But that’s not the best part of it!
One way fares are starting at $49 to $129 and include a whole bunch of domestic and international destinations.
Not only will you able to lock in some great fares for travel this winter (HERE COMES THE GOOD PART!), but because of Southwest’s generous rebooking policy, you’ll also be able to rebook any existing reservations if the prices have gone down, and get a credit for a future Southwest flight. Just remember that you’ll need to use the refunded amount to book and fly within one year of when you originally booked the ticket.
As usual, there are plenty of restrictions with these low fares (because what would cheap airfare be without restrictions? You thought you’d get a good price over Christmas week? Ahhhh….no. LOLOL!):
