    You can still get money back if there's a deal!

    Guess I wasn't totally clear. I was looking to fly out to SDF ~26th of October. This promo is for flights starting Oct 29th :(.

    No LAS destination from my airports when starting from the sale promo. Tried the routine method, no great sale prices on any days I want to go. :(

    I really got conditioned by becoming a Vegas enthusiast during and right after Covid. I'm still frustrated if the fares aren't $49 each way, which is absurd. Still, when you've established an expectation of $100 round-trip, $300 round-trip for a 65 minute flight just feels expensive.

    That I won't go because of $100-$200 more in airfare... yet arrive and lose $5000, may be the most illogical judgments of my life

    I was able to save $88 on rebooking my outbound flight to Vegas. Nothing on the return flight.
    The start of a winning trip???

    Was due to fly out 11/1, but now I also have a flight booked for late 10/30 afternoon too. Hoping I can work it that I can leave a few days early and celebrate Halloween in LV.

    Saved 3540 points on my outbound flight. Return flight is more than when I booked it but that’s okay as I had already gotten a great price!

    Meanwhile, Frontier has $19 sales like every week. Minimum fare means minimum comfort and minimum service. You can't expect too much when they are taking you to vegas for less than the price of lunch.

    Round trip for 2 was 1300 for me. I eat cheaper lunches than that.

    I got my Nov Las Vegas fare down from 137.97 to 107.97
    Nice!

    And saved another $20 on my MKE flight in early Dec.

    I'll take any few bucks I can get!

    I booked a trip to Nashville from Houston for less than $200. Of course, pre-Covid I could do the same for Vegas.
