Southwest Airlines offers fares as low as $79 on some routes

Southwest Airlines has one-way fares as low as $79 or $59 on some routes through August 26th.

You can find some great deals if you don't mind traveling at off-peak times.

Flights must take place between Sept. 6 and Feb. 15 but are not included in the new year, Christmas and Thanksgiving.

The best time to book is for flights on Tuesdays and Wednesdays in select markets.

Travel is available for one way Wanna Get Away and Wanna Get Away Plus fares.

Transportation experts believe that travel will get easier as the year goes on as airlines continue to staff up to help reduce the number of flight delays and cancellations.

During the second-quarter earnings call, executives said the company is back to pre-pandemic staffing levels and is making progress toward operational efficiency and reliability, with a cancellation rate below 1% in May and June.

Southwest says that the discounted flights are nonrefundable, but customers can turn their tickets into credits if they are no longer able to fly.
