The trick to getting the best fares is to know what the average fare is for the route you are flying and continually check for price drops. AND, you can cancel a Southwest flight, and re-book on that carrier, if the competitor’s price goes down, inclusive of baggage fees, at the last minute. This can make a Southwest flight less expensive overall, than a lower priced base fare at a competitor that charges baggage fees. In addition, Southwest allows two bags per person to fly free. Domestic flight prices are higher across the board but being able to change or cancel your flight without penalty, allows you to book the best fares, even if you’re not certain of your schedule in the future. This is a bummer, but Southwest is the ONLY airline, that doesn’t charge additional fees to change or cancel a flight. Low fares can disappear quickly, in a matter of days, or even hours. Southwest Airlines is generally, still the best airline to fly if you’re looking for reasonably priced and convenient domestic flights, but since they upgraded their reservation system in May, it is more difficult to find deals and those that you do find, may be for flights with bad connections or at odd times.
