theNose76 Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 A heads up to all who travel in or out of Buffalo (probably most of the people on this site): http://www.southwest.com/hotfares/buffalo.html Here are the important restrictions: -Purchase must be made between October 21, 2008 and October 23, 2008 for travel October 28, 2008 through February 12, 2009. -Blackout dates apply November 20, 2008 through December 2, 2008 and December 18, 2008 through January 4, 2009. If any portion of travel falls on a blackout date the discount will not apply. Personally I am cancelling my current flight to Buffalo for MNF and booking one from southwest, even with the cancellation fee from Delta this is cheaper.
Chef Jim Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 Thanks for the tip I usually head back to Buffalo during the winter to ski with my dad and brother. However even with the 50% discount the tickets were $250 from Orange County on Southwest. Quick check on Travelocity I found a round trip on Northwest for $201. That's actually the lowest fare I've seen in years.

Chef Jim Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 Look at the price of Crude, Jed! Current price of crude has very little to do with current price of airline tickets.
GoodBye Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 Why doesn't SOUTHwest airlines go to Atlanta?? It's one of the major airports and it's in the south.
EndZoneCrew Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 Thanks for the tip I usually head back to Buffalo during the winter to ski with my dad and brother. Won't your champagne be too cold to consume in that brisk, arctic Buffalo air?
erynthered Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 Current price of crude has very little to do with current price of airline tickets. So much fer sarcasm, Jethro. May the warm air of Palm Springs give you a rash for a thousand days and nights.
Chef Jim Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 Won't your champagne be too cold to consume in that brisk, arctic Buffalo air? There's no such thing as Champagne that's too cold.

Beerball Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 Why doesn't SOUTHwest airlines go to Atlanta?? It's one of the major airports and it's in the south. cause there's only 2 things come from Atlanta
PromoTheRobot Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 Just booked R/T or the Browns game. $71 was the base fare but $47 of taxes, security, and something called PFC, brought to $118.
BillsWatch Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 Just booked R/T or the Browns game. $71 was the base fare but $47 of taxes, security, and something called PFC, brought to $118. Passenger Facility Charge (PFC) - Fee imposed by an airport on enplaning passengers. When departing from or connecting at any of the following airports, that airport's PFC will apply in addition to the fare.
Mr Info Posted October 24, 2008 Posted October 24, 2008 A heads up to all who travel in or out of Buffalo (probably most of the people on this site): http://www.southwest.com/hotfares/buffalo.html Hot Damn - I am there for MNF: $86 RT from BWI! Thanks for the heads up.
The Dean Posted October 24, 2008 Posted October 24, 2008 Hot Damn - I am there for MNF: $86 RT from BWI! Thanks for the heads up. I almost pulled the trigger on the same thing (from JAX, though). $60 RT plus fees. May do it tomorrow. I want to make sure I don't have to scalp a Monday Night ticket...that might be one of the few games when the cheap seat isn't so cheap.
bbb Posted October 24, 2008 Posted October 24, 2008 when is this over - it's 10/24 but looks like it's still good........I'll book something if I can in the morning
BillsWatch Posted October 24, 2008 Posted October 24, 2008 It is over even though Southwest has NOT taken down page yet. Only deal to Buffalo on website is: Buffalo/Niagara Falls, NY $59 one-way, to/from Chicago (Midway), IL http://www.southwest.com/hotfares/0809_shorthaul.html If you are interested in flying to Denver game: http://www.southwest.com/hotfares/0809_denver.html
Just Jack Posted October 24, 2008 Posted October 24, 2008 Why doesn't SOUTHwest airlines go to Atlanta?? It's one of the major airports and it's in the south. I can't believe none of you pointed this out... Atlanta is in the south EAST.
GoodBye Posted October 25, 2008 Posted October 25, 2008 I can't believe none of you pointed this out... Atlanta is in the south EAST. Yeah, but it flies to the NW and every where else.
