Tuesday is here and that means another sale from Southwest. Last week, they posted it on Monday but I think that had more to do with Election Day than trying to switch things up a bit. Regardless, if you want to book new tickets or check existing ones, now is as good as of sale as any to do that!

This is a meaningful sale because it is good for travel from now until May of 2019. This gives you a great amount of space on the calendar to book those sale fares. Plus, the blackout dates stop after January 2 so that leaves a lot of dates available.
Just like last week, Southwest is keeping SNA, Orange Count airport, out of the sale fun. For everywhere else, make sure you check to see what the prices are. The cheapest city pair, as usual, is Long Beach, CA and Las Vegas, NV but there are some other great deals as well.
