Hi, I have not yet booked Southwest Airlines Wanna Get Away fares from Vegas to LAX for the 30th of October '14. We are not yet sure what time we want to fly. Does anyone know if these fares become unavailable as the date gets closer or do they stay the same or maybe get cheaper? I expect the...

Re: Booking a US domestic Southwest flight from AU, which payment method has lowest f Thanks Jurahn. While I appreciate it is not a lot of money, it does not make any sense paying more to the banks than I have to... We flew Southwest last year but booked that 'in country' and used 28 degrees...

re: "oneworld" award (140K/280K/420K) Planning - The Definitive Thread Is a 280k RTW split trip possible? Thanks to the USA government shutdown our long planned and booked itinerary, that included rafting the Grand Canyon, has been very disrupted. We are looking to return next October to do the...

Please recommend airline for 2 pax LAX - SFO. LAS - LAX. Will each have a checked bag under 23kg. Cheers, Jason

Thanks for all the replies. After 5 weeks away I'll have to be at work on the Monday, the later SYD-PER flight is well worth considering though. Seats are upper deck 33k & 33J.
