well like southwest's lowest fares at this point in the past have usually been between $99 and $129 for the "Web Specials"

but the lowest i can find for my relevant dates are *starting* at $280 and going up to near $400, one-way, for the lowest priced fares

i can get a Delta red-eye for about $450 round trip, which actually works better for my schedule, but even that seemed like 50% more what i should be paying at this point

ah, I see. we don't use SW that much for cross-country, so I'm not as familar with them. - b. Jan 27, 16:12 1
- they used to be clearly lower than the majors if you shopped early, but i think they lost their fuel hedge advantage last year - encyclopedia pixie Jan 27, 16:17
