An activist investor took a 10% stake and is demanding the changes, and claiming Southwest won't recover unless they do what they're told (which means cut corners and make flying as miserable as possible while destroying all good will with customers in pursuit of short-term profits). The activist is also just full of ****, because the main reason southwest stock is taking a beating is because Boeing's problems and delays have totally screwed SW in the medium-term (because SW is an all-737 fleet). When 737 deliveries start again (particularly of the long-delayed smaller variants) SW stock will bounce back all on its own. Of course, the activist investor ignored all of that in their BS slide decks. But it's working anyway, and the CEO is making a bunch of terrible changes that will totally screw SW and relegate them to competing purely on price by 2026.

There's more to it, but i guess that's the short version. Just lots of weak management being preyed upon by terrible "investors" all in the name of turning a quick profit while screwing over the company. It was good while it lasted.

Is this a real sale? Or another promo with typical prices for the majority of flights?

Southwest be capping more than policticans with their "sales."

There are better ways to waste time than to browse their sales.

Yet one more SWA bogus "sale."
SWA: SAN-PVR 12-07-24 $711.51 (one stop)
Alaska: SAN-PVR 12-07/12-14 $398 non-stop
A flight Alaska regularly services non-stop is cheaper than a flight that requires a hop through phoenix on SW? No way!

I was looking at buying some tickets for mid-December (DAL<>DEN). The price with the sale this week is the same as without the sale last week. So at least in that one example, the sale seems to be fake.

Very very few flights are on sale Frown Bummer. Would be cool if it was a real sale on all flights. For my search, only 2 of the 20 flights for a day were discounted, and they were not 40% off but were less than 30% off. Regular price was $209 and they were discounted to $173. Not even close to 40% off.

Still, not to the tune anywhere close to SWA's fares. Alaska with one stop each way is $557.36 and it's not a scumbag airline. SWA is just a step up from Spirit and Frontier. Plus, if you book Alaska with miles, there is no basic economy. You automatically get main cabin.

.
Even though it mentions HI travel several times in the fine print under the "More Fine Print" section it gives a blurb note that these discounts do NOT apply to ANY intraisland HI flights nor SNA airport departures or arrivals.

You're using one example and it's an international flight on top of that.

These sales are always "select flights"...same as it has been for years now. Plus, airfare pricing is dynamic so today it's one thing, tomorrow it can be another. These types of comments are found in every SW deals/sales thread created on here but it's just so trendy to complain instead of using common sense.

I do use my common sense. That's why I won't fly a scumbag airline such as Allegiant, Spirit, Frontier, or Southwest. And you don't need to tell me about the airline industry. I was a brick and mortar travel agent for years.

Last year it was a real sale
Just "rebooked" a $300 Round trip flight by changing my flights to the same flight numbers I was already on and price dropped by $97. So definitely saved me 40% (doesn't discount the TSA fees and taxes)

Anyone know if I rebook the companion pass deal from last month, would it cancel the deal since the flight had to be booked by September 5th?
