United has “basic economy” round-trip flights from Dallas (DFW) to Aspen, Colorado (ASE) for $150 with a connection. $70 each-way. Flights from December 2017 to June 2018. New Years / Christmas available. Weekends available. “Regular Economy” available for +$50 more.

Note: March, June and July flights are mostly midweek only.

Note: “Basic economy” fares do not include a free carry-on bag. Only a personal item (like a small-backpack) is free. Checked bags cost +$25 each-way. Seat selection will be randomly assigned prior to boarding. If you have the United MileagePlus credit-card, use the “free checked bag” perk.

Note: You can select between “Basic Economy” and “Main Cabin” at the Priceline or Travelocity check-out screen. See screenshot below.

  • Example Dates: (Priceline / BookingBuddy) Dec 01 – Dec 03 / Dec 05 – Dec 09 / Dec 12 – Dec 16 / Dec 21 – Dec 26, 29 / Dec 24 – Dec 29, 31 / Dec 29 – Jan 04 / Dec 31 – Jan 05 / etc… (Most months are pretty wide open, unless previously stated otherwise) / Oct 05 – Oct 07 / Other dates: There are more dates available than the ones we list here, experiment on your own. Use the Flexible Date Calendar on United’s website.

  • Tips: Rent a car for cheaper by using Priceline’s “Express Deals”. The rental car company will be hidden until after you purchase, but this allows those companies to undercut the published rate indirectly. You can remove low quality companies from those hidden results. The trick is to use the quality filter on their website to remove any rental car company with a review rating under 7.0 and then pick the deals that survive the filter. Note that the quality filter is only available on the desktop/web version of the Priceline website and isn’t available on the mobile version.
  • Tips: The Chase Sapphire Preferred® Card allows for 1-to-1 point transfers to several airline loyalty programs. Booking with points is a good alternative to paying with cash when the price of airfare is high. Here is the current list of Chase Sapphire transfer partners: United, Southwest, jetBlue, British Airways, Iberia, Singapore Airlines, Emirates, Air France, KLM, Virgin Atlantic, Aer Lingus, and Air Canada.
  • Tips: Use Tripadvisor to create a Hotel “short list”. First, plug in your dates and destination. Then select “Sort by Traveler Ranked”. Finally, select the “Traveler Ranking” filter to show “only 4* and up”. Use this resulting “short list” of hotels to find the cheapest one with a high ranking.
  • Tips: Hotel rates for Weekend dates are usually higher than the rates for Sunday through Thursday. Tripadvisor has a color-coded date calendar, red when the average hotel price for that day is more expensive, green for less expensive. You can use this to get an overview of what dates in the month are at a discount.
  • Tips: Different booking websites will often have differing routes, prices, and availability. Before you finalize your purchase, do a quick check on BookingBuddy, Skyscanner, and Kayak to see if any other site or airline is offering a better deal.

I was able to pull this fare up on Travelocity or Priceline. Screenshot taken at 1:45 PM on 11/21/17.
