@TheMiddleSeat Yes! Everything is going up in price! I'm guessing SW's new "Wanna Get Away Plus" means there will be less "Wanna Get Away" fares available too!
There are so many issues right now with SW it's hard to ignore!
The number of SW delayed flights (20.64%) is the highest it's been since 2014 (28.13%)* and it's only June 2nd. It also has the 2nd HIGHEST cancellation rate behind Spirit**!
So with SW's fares now on par with other major airlines, what benefit do you have booking with them? Other airlines offer a wider range of nonstop flights and red eye flights! (SW doesn't even offer a NonStop option between Los Angeles and New York!)
I was a HUGE and LOYAL fan of Southwest for many, many years... I would cringe when people in my circle would refer to them as Southworst! But times have changed! I am all ears and open to persuasion!

Yes! I have noticed rates have gone up. All the points I accumulated from flying and the SW credit card has lost their value too. Not to mention their flights are being delayed and rescheduled at an alarming rate.
Sad to report I can no longer be loyal and am cutting ties with SW's credit cards.
It's such a shame because Southwest used to be such an easy and affordable option.
