    SouthWest's prices out of MHT have been nuts lately!!! I month ago I saw a super low price ($125 each way) and jumped on it. Glad I did. For the last 3 weeks the same flight I am flying out on is $286 and the return flight is $223 for a total of $509.00 I love MHT as it is only 10 min from my house, but man Southwest needs some competition, come JetBlue please come to MHT!!! Not to mention Southwest no longer has a direct flight from MHT to Vegas....

    They do have one non-stop each way on Saturdays this summer.

    But getting rid of the daily non-stop eliminated MHT for me.

    I would prefer a nonstop, but I can live with the one stop with no plane change. It's still better than having to deal with Logan...

    I too am 10-15 minutes away from MHT, however I missed your great find, but did get $315 r/t for the end of Aug. I paid even more last year. Looks like airfare is out of whack right now, just saw another thread, and in the Midwest they are paying even more than I am....:peace:

    Have a great trip.

    Good Luck!

    WOW I just posted about flights from everywhere being so High. I wish I could find $125.00 out of Indy closest Southwest to me in Cincy next to Lexington or Louisville. All airlines are really high it seems like. Hoping for around $270 or under would be even better even $300.00. Trips in Sept so I have time.

    My 2 rooms are comped for 5 nights and $37.00 for the 6th night and of course $100.00 resort fee. When did they start these ? There are 5 of us going. I can't wait so many changes I'm hearing about since I was there in Fed 2013.

    MHT is our favorite...we have been flying out of BDL the last 2 years because I insist on the nonstop...no reason SW should have stopped the nonstops out of MHT they were always full. When I looked last month for my June dates there were flights adding up to $600- $800 rt out of MHT....they have been outrageous every time I look. The number of flights they show out of MHT has drastically reduced over the past few years also. Still our favorite airport, hope to be able to fly out of there again sometime.

    Teroot10 is Dayton an option for you? I haven't looked much but last year got better rates than from Columbus. Worth checking out if you can do the drive.

    Yes it is and I've been checking from there and Columbus. I love flying out of Dayton. There rates are just as high as Cincy if not higher now.

    They use to be the best kept secret for flights cheap and small airport and always on time. No more.

    I'm going to keep watching. I even keep watching out of Indy, Losuiville, Lexington.

    I just find it amazing how much flights have gone up from just a year ago.

    Thanks though teroot
