just went on travelocity…booked ROUND TRIP tickets for 2 to Vegas for $150 RT/ea. I checked prices last week and they were $245 RT/ea. Not the shitty Southwest flights either. I think there is a 2 day sale on tickets… If you’re looking to book tickets anywhere, TODAY is the day to do it. [www.travelocity.com](http://www.travelocity.com) :grouphug: ---

Economy in the toilet and cheap gas = WIN I personally am not a fan of southwest. I love Jet Blue and when I was waiting at the airport to go to Atlanta on Southwest, my coworker was like “we need to go line up so we get good seats”. It was that moment I realized I hated southwest. ---

I travel a good amount for work and I prefer soutwest to a lot of other airlines. When I have the choice to fly southwest I take it over united, AA, and Delta. ---

I can’t say I have ever had a bad experience there, just don’t like the idea of having to line up to pick your seat. I would rather show up 30 min before my flight leaves to the gate and wander on the plane to my assigned seat like civilized people. None of the get in line shit. ---

just a tip for anyone, i’m a little weary myself booking through expedia/orbitz/travelocity/etc…so what to do is find your cheapest flight, see what airline it’s through, and then book straight through the airline. i feel a little safer that way and it’s usually a few dollars cheaper too. ---
