Different tiers with the Wanna Getaway offering?
I fly southwest twice a year typically an easy peasy experience. Today I booked 2 tickets on the Wanna Getaway fare from Tampa to NYC for April 2020 and the total was $655. Once I entered the passenger information I received a message saying there were no seats available. I quickly re-entered the exact flights in the Wanna Getaway fares and it went through but now the new total was 675.00. I called Southwest and was told that someone beat me to the 655 fare and there are different tiers with the Wanna Getaway offering. What???? Has anyone else ever heard of this? You can be sure I’ll be watching changes in airfare for the next 5 months to see if I can get the flights any cheaper. To add insult to injury, I just flew SW 2 weeks ago and early bird boarding was $20 each. Today it was $25 each! I told the woman that I’m finding little incentive to fly SW. Decided to use JetBlue for Thanksgiving!
