Non stop flights only, limited destinations. For example, LAS-SFO is not available at a discounted rate that day despite several non stop flights.

Not really - return flight will be a KILLER; how can SWA continue to call themselves a low fare carrier.

Underneath the ad for cyber Monday $100 ow fare, SW lists the cities it's good between. I think they only sold a limited number of seats for that. Too bad, I could have used it.

Obviously you haven't priced flights to Florida lately...and checked bags. I haven't been able to find a cheaper carrier in and out of Florida when you count baggage fees from other carriers. Fly with a family of 4 and see if you can find a cheaper way to fly nonstop in and out. not going to happen when you have baggage to carry with you for a vacation.

Keep in mind for SW, if you already have tickets you can change your already booked flight to the lower current fares and get a credit.
