Are you planning some travel soon? There’s a lot to prepare for!
New nonstop flights have been announced for Orlando International Airport which can be very helpful if you’re flying to Disney World. But you’ll also want to be aware of the latest changes in air travel, like how Southwest’s boarding process is changing. If you’re planning a trip soon and don’t want to go alone, we’ve got some good news about a Southwest deal that you’ll want to take advantage of!
Southwest has announced a limited-time offer where if you register for the deal and buy 2 one-way flights or 1 roundtrip ticket by August 30th, you’ll be able to bring a friend to fly with you for FREE during a future trip.
Now, there are some important terms to keep in mind. First, you do need to register for the promotion and purchase 1 round-trip or two 1-way flights by 8/30 — that’s just 2 days away! (You need to book by 11:59 p.m. CDT on August 30th, 2023 so act fast.) Second, you must travel with Southwest before September 30th. THEN you’ll be able to have a companion fly with you for FREE (not including taxes and fees) between January 8th and March 8th, 2024.
This could be a great deal for those who have been looking to book a getaway with a partner, best friend, or anyone else! While it does require a bit of planning on the front end, it’ll save you big when you actually travel, and that’s a win in our book.
