Save 40% Off Select Southwest Paid And Award Flights!

Use code: 40OFF

• Valid for one-way or round trip Wanna Get Away and Wanna Get Away Plus fares booked by 6/15 at 11:59pm PT.
• Fly between 8/15-12/14.
• Blackout dates: 11/16-11/27.
• Offer is valid only for select flights.
• If you have entered the promotion code in the Promo Code box during the Booking Period, then while selecting your flights, savings in the base fare will be visible as a strike-through of the original fare on eligible flights.
• Discount availability may vary by destination, flight, and day of week, and won’t be available on some flights that operate during very busy travel times and holiday periods.

You can use Southwest’s low fare calendar to find the cheapest dates to travel.

For example a nonstop flight from LaGuardia to Chicago on 8/22 is $55.74 or 3,154 points+$5.60 after the discount. That’s a value of 1.59 cents per point.

If you previously purchased Southwest travel, you will want to reprice it now to check if you should cancel and rebook it!
