Been busy at work recently so haven't had the time to get this thread going for a few weeks. Deals are decent, especially the atlanta and dallas ones. All prices are for a roundtrip ticket.

Atlanta: End of April to mid June, MSY-ATL is $78 roundtrip on Frontier. I've never seen it that cheap, if I had a reason to go to Atlanta I'd book it.

Dallas: American and Southwest are having a sale for mid april to the second week of June for MSY-DFW and MSY-DAL. Cheapest I've found is $81, mostly $84.

Washington DC: I've been looking to see if anything in the northeast got to be < $200 and this showed up. MSY-DCA on US Airways is $191, on Southwest it's $198. Looks to go until the first week of June.

Happy travels

MSY to Chicago through August is still cheap when I last looked. Around $127 roundtrip. Gotta play with the dates. United I believe.

You're right. I don't know if people remember the thread I posted a while back with the $97 airfare that American, United, and Southwest had in January. I've been avoiding posting the $127 MSY-Chicago only because people will say "Well it's been cheaper before"

What are the first class fares?

Not that anyone on this board cares about prices anyway.

Ouch...

They make money on those cheap fares from all the fees, like baggage, soda, boarding early, etc.

I was looking for the last weekend in May, first in June. I should have asked if weekends counted.... lol. I'm assuming that's the case?

That weekend is a bit more, I'm seeing it for $181 on American from Friday-Sunday. Southwest is actually only $88 for that weekend.

Any Vegas deals? Would be worth it to me to go on a whim if there ever is.
