I have been fretting over the cost of airfare like you have no idea for my April trip
I just booked for $139 pp one way for 4/22 at an awful flight time, and then just modified AT NO ADDITIONAL COST to a 6am nonstop on 4/24 my desired date and time. This flight is showing a list cost of greater than $400 right now.
Ok thanks! I read the linked article. (I am assuming that they were talking about March 2019 in the article and not March 2020?) Anyway, I was hoping based on @FindMeAFishingSpotās earlier post that this might work for me as well for our March trip, but our dates are not flexible. Prices on the flights I need are out of control. In fact, for the return flight, the Wanna Get Away fares are sold out. Congrats everyone who was able to take advantage of this opportunity! Thanks for posting!
Does this work on the Wanna get away prices or only full price? Iāve never flown southwest but am very tempted by this deal! We got home late last night from WDW and already trying to squeeze another trip in the budget!
I believe you have to stick to the same fare class that you originally booked in. I booked Wanna Get Away and it only offered me changes under those fares.
So, Iād like to share what this enabled me to do. I had originally booked a bounceback for Pop for 7 nights next summer. Bought airfare knowing I could change if needed at some point (probably). When the AP discounts were released I found that if I just shifted one day forward, I could stay at Coronado Springs for the 7 nights for less money than Pop. Thatās what I really wanted to do but all the times I could afford with my SW points were terrible. This enabled me to change days and get the perfectly timed, direct flights I wanted. THANK YOU!!!
