In what seems to be a nod to exploration, Southwest Airlines has yet again rolled out its much-anticipated “Wanna Get Away Sale.” This promo offers globetrotters and casual travelers alike the chance to snag flights for as low as $39 one-way. This bargain is perfect for those looking to see the world without emptying their bank accounts.
From April 23 through June 5, 2024, and again from August 6 through November 20, 2024, travelers can take advantage of this fantastic price to travel across the continental United States. A little later window—from August 20 to November 20, 2024—extends the sale to San Juan, Puerto Rico, Hawaii, and international locations for those who dream of island breezes and Pacific sunsets.
When to Book Your Southwest Tickets
Travelers have until the stroke of midnight PT on April 11 to book their discounted seats. It’s a small window of opportunity to grab these deals, but it opens the door to wondrous experiences. However, there’s a catch — to benefit from these prices, you must purchase your tickets at least 21 days in advance. Additionally, most travel dates are blacked out on September 3, 2024, and unfortunately for some, flights through John Wayne Airport in Orange County, California, don’t qualify for this promotion.
For those interested in specific examples of what this sale offers, look no further than the enticing price of $46 for one-way flights between Los Angeles and Las Vegas for most days in May. Or perhaps the $78 fare from Fort Lauderdale to San Juan catches your eye and is available for flights in May during this sale period.
Southwest Airlines distinguishes itself from ultra-low-cost carriers by not charging extra for a carry-on bag and up to two checked bags, a policy that further sweetens these deals. However, it’s worth noting that Southwest operates on an open seating policy, which means your boarding position determines your seat selection.
