Looks like all of the BWI routes to Florida went up today.Wow just checked to see if price had dropped at all on my fares from BWI to MCO and they have jumped from the $123 I paid each way to $163+

Look what is happening to the price of gas, Jet fuel will be on the rise again and so will airline fares.Looks like all of the BWI routes to Florida went up today.
I've been watching since opening day, hoping to get some points back, but mine just keep climbing. Booked when they were $163 out, $216 back which I thought was high. My outbound is now sold out with other, reasonable times at $353 and the returns are all Anytime or higher, so $571. Oooof! Someone who wanted reasonably priced last minute travel on my days would need to take the late flight that lands at 1am in either direction and they'd still be paying more than my opening day fares.Looks like all of the BWI routes to Florida went up today.
We are currently accepting air reservations through April 10, 2023. On October 27, 2022 we will open our schedule for sale through July 10, 2023. This date is subject to change! Please check back frequentlySo the next drop is on which day exactly again? This is the first time I’ve been waiting for flights to drop!
Now don't jinx usSouthwest is currently running a promotion for 50% off buying points. I wonder if they are preparing us for for the high fares that are coming with the next drop.
Is the 50% off for everyone? I'm seeing 45% when I log into my account.Southwest is currently running a promotion for 50% off buying points. I wonder if they are preparing us for for the high fares that are coming with the next drop.
We received an email on my husbands southwest for 50, mine was only 45Is the 50% off for everyone? I'm seeing 45% when I log into my account.
I am hoping to get a little insight. We are flying SW bc they had the best prices this time around.
I am curious if anyone has ever qualified for pre boarding with my DD and my issues.
My DD7 is ASD1 (Autism spectrum level 1) and has sensory issues. She will have melt downs if she feels crowded or rushed. She is also specific on where she sits and needs her seat cleaned.
I have issues with blood clots in my legs and swelling. I am also highly claustrophobic and need to see the door so have to be semi up front.
Anyone have even a guess if we would possibly qualify? If they turn you down is it big deal?
TIA

Travel demand appears to continue at high levels. Anecdotally, there was a brief reprieve and I was able to save about $44 round trip on a flight to Sarasota in January, but those prices are back at higher levels. Does not bode well for summer travel prices. Car rentals are very high too. Usually in November/December we're able to get some $79 or $99 flights to Florida cities for winter travel. Hoping we see that this year, but my expectations are rather low.I've been watching since opening day, hoping to get some points back, but mine just keep climbing.

A good reminder to us all that the next fare drop is in one week, so get on that if you need flights through 7/10/23
Not to mention high demand for travel. The combination = high fares for now.Look what is happening to the price of gas, Jet fuel will be on the rise again and so will airline fares.
We've done a couple of those layovers at BWI and it's been fine. My kids are good at following in crowds and pulling their luggage at the same time.We are flying to Orlando on Thanksgiving day. We have an hour layover at BWI, should I be concerned about making the connecting flight? We almost always do a direct flight from our area but this time Southwest only had one nonstop flight and it ended up being a pretty late flight so we opted for the layover. I actually just noticed that the layover was only an hour.
Man, I wish I could say the same. My kids just want to go as slowly as possible and look at ALL THE THINGS.My kids are good at following in crowds and pulling their luggage at the same time.
It did take some training.Man, I wish I could say the same. My kids just want to go as slowly as possible and look at ALL THE THINGS.
I get it, guys, that's an interesting Nat Geo cover over at Hudson News, but you can't just stop dead to comment on how cute the meerkats are!
