I think Robert had it dead on. THe problem most people on here have is that we want to book a week after your last available date and we're waiting for you to schedule 5 months worth before that 1 week comes out. It should be done 1 month at a time, 5 months in advance. Not 3 months ahead and then 5 months come out. Now I have calmed down a bit. I am debating on waiting for the 8th or not. I can tell you 1 thing for sure. If I wait until the 8th, and the rates are not cheaper than I have found (which aren't bad at 325 round trip to Vegas), or aren't in the area of that with better flight times, I will never even look at Southwest again. I will then have lost all faith that Southwest has the best schedule and price around, and no longer feel the need to wait them out. The only way I will become angry again is if I wait and then find the other airlines booked up. This would also cause me to never use SW again. The only way I turn out happy is if I get a great deal in the end from SW. My hopes are not high.

I have been looking to book a trip to Vegas for May 21st since Mid December. I keep thinking since I'm looking for a week later, it should be out soon. Well almost 2 months later, it's not out. Hotel rooms in Vegas that day are skyrocketing and the hotels can't tell me why. I will not book a room without a flight so in the next couple days, I'll book what should be a very simlarly priced flight with another Airline. I was hoping to get a charter flight form SWA. With all the people I see writing here that they can't wait anymore, I'd say you lost a lot more money than you will save by this delay
