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.

Because I love reading the comments on a bogus "sale." And you?
You mean like these?

Quote from Mr_Style :
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)
Quote from corman84 :
Just booked a flight LAST Fri, this code took $50 off per person, thanks OP!
Quote from hound-diggity :
Thanks, saved 11,000 points by rebooking.
Quote from kfpanda :

Quote from Donut12 :

Quote from serra :

i rebooked my hawaii trip and saved a few thousand points Big Grin
Quote from turls :
Dang, I ended up doing a short call to get a refund/credit on a flight I just booked a few days ago and saved $140. RT with Early Bird for 2 passengers to Hawaii from StL for $1k. Seems decent.
Quote from Rebate Junkie :
I just saved $110 by rebooking a previously booked flight with this new fare. Love you, Southwest Airlines and Slickdeals! Thanks and repped to the original posters.

There are no real savings. Keep reading the thread from the beginning. Or better yet, compare them to legacy carriers.

I did. Might be a YMMV, but my flight beats previous savings on SW and blows away legacy. Maybe that will change next week, or maybe it won't.

In my OP, the price was $711.54. Today, not on sale, it's $616.24. And the legacy carrier, Alaska, still beats them by $300.

Everyone who saved money was rebooking. So there is no saving unless you lock yourself into SW.
