TB Cheap Airfare of Last Week: Nola-Chicago $78, Dallas $78, Atlanta $98

Happy start to the week everyone . Exhausted after flying back from Buffalo this morning. Several notes about flying Southwest through Orlando: 1. Exit row seats are usually open because of all the families (was A38 and was the first person to sit in the exit row). 2. Get used to at least 4 or 5 wheel chairs for pre-boarding. 3. Pick a seat where there is not a small child behind you in case he or she likes to get foot happy. 4. Kids don't have a 6am quiet filter like most adults
In any case, noticed some decent deals on Southwest and American for the next few months. Think southwest feels terrible about their outage so they're extending sales by a week. Any questions let me know.
New Orleans to:
Chicago: $78 on Southwest, $138 on United. Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Saturdays in August, Sept, Oct, Nov on Southwest. Thursdays and Mondays are $10 more but still a great price.
Dallas: $78 on Southwest or American. Tons of open days on Southwest, not as many on American
Orlando: $158 on Southwest, $178 on Delta or American. Southwest cheapest on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays or Saturdays august through november.
Boston: $150 on United, $160 on American. Now through February, most dates are there excluding times around thanksgiving, christmas, and new years.
Miami: $142 on American. Mid August through early november, mostly Tuesday and Wednesday departures.
Fort Lauderdale: $138 on Southwest, $152/$172 on United. Dates are sporadic on southwest, but go from August to December (including thanksgiving for cheap). Cheap dates on United in August through September.
Atlanta: $98 on Southwest, $171 on American, $200 on Delta. August through first two weeks of December
Houston: $116 on Southwest, $127 on United. Almost every day now through December on Southwest, only Tuesdays and Wednesdays on United through early November.
Washington DC: $203 on Southwest, United or American. Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays on American August through early December
Cincinatti: $90 on Allegiant. Flights are Thursdays or Sundays in early September.
St. Petersburg FL: $88 on Allegiant. Flights are Mondays or Fridays in August, September or October
Tulsa: $66 on Allegiant. Flights are thursdays or sundays in August, September or October

So remember our talk about a month ago regarding getting to and from Honolulu? Probably not...
But prices have gone up about $200 since then.

They'll keep going up and down, just sit tight and keep watching. If it gets to where it was earlier now you know it's a good/decent price to book at. I've been browsing Honolulu prices the past few weeks and they're crazy right now for some reason

I was trying everything. LAX, SFO, SAN, SEA, PDX, DEN. One way to HNL. One way to each stop. Southwest. Fares in both directions.
Best I could do was around $1550 (2 adults) and that's AFTER the rebates I have due to Alaska losing my luggage.
What was frustrating was a cheaper flight from SFO to HNL with a connection in LAX. But the direct flight from LAX to HNL (same exact plane) is $200 more! And it would work great because I can take a direct from MSY to LAX on SW.
AHHHHH.

Damn the cheapest I'm seeing is $876 and those are terrible times. Give me a few minutes and I'll browse around. Still looking at the 9-12th?
Posted on 7/25/16 at 3:28 pm to CuseTiger
Yep. You don't have to do any of the dirty work if you don't want to. I've got alerts on a few flights as well as doing my own weekly checking. I've expanded to 8th or 9th to leave. I understand we might lose a day coming back on the 12th, too. If we have to red-eye, fine.

This is finicky as of right now, but may work if you can fly in and out of KOA instead of Honolulu
Best Option:
12/8 or 12/9 MSY-DEN-SEA-KOA (MSY-DEN on United, everything else on Alaska)
Book with united for $711
12/12 KOA-SEA-MSY on Alaska (redeye to seattle)
Book with Alaska for $833
Total is $1544 - $250 = $1294

Damn I'm going to Chicago then driving to green bay for the LSU game. That's a freaking steal at $78.

Delta just had a huge price drop.
MSY - LAX - HNL
Roundtrip for 2 = $1114

Thanks for posting these threads Cuse.
Generally speaking, what airline has the cheapest flights from NOLA to NYC? I'll be going next summer.

It rotates around, I've seen American and southwest at $150 with a connection before while united and delta are a little more expensive for the nonstops at $200. If you notice anything around those prices feel free to book. This past summer was very expensive to get to nyc in july/august, want to say around $300
