I have never flown Southwest and quite frankly I dont know how you get the DING fares but Iam really considering them now for my Nov. Trip.
I just checked them again and am really reconsidering travelling 2hrs to Philly because of their great NO EXTRA FEES low rates!!!!!!!!! (see my airfare fees chart)
My original dates were 10/31 -11/9 but I was thinking about coming home 1 day early on the 8th so I check southwest fares AND....
If I leave the evening of 10/30 (can try to work MOST of that day) at 7:30pm (dont want to take the last flight just in case and dont want to get to hotel after midnite) and fly home on Nov. 8th at 3:30pm (8am was $40 cheaper but TOO Early!
), the fare for DD and Me is $552.00 TOTAL!!!
Not bad eh??? I would only have to leave 1 day earlier, maybe leave work by 3pm? Or maybe a lil earlier and drive to Philly or look into car service???
Coming home, I wanted to come home later because I originally had a CM"s dinner ADR booked but I can deal with that and try to fit it in somewhere else.
And if I leave 1 nite earlier I will book a cheap hotel in Maingate, last time it was like $44 or something.
I know Iam paying a lil extra here and there but I think it will be worth it because Iam getting the closest to the days I wanted, and the fare is lower and I wont have to pay for my luggage or seats, etc...
So can I get some input from someone that has some experience with SouthWest and anyone else who would to add something.
Thank you!
