Southwest has round-trip flights from Dallas (DAL) to Fort Lauderdale (FLL) for $112, NONSTOP. $56 each-way. Flights September to November. Mostly midweek. Origin/Destination reversible. No Holidays.

Note: American Airlines seems to be matching with “Basic Economy” fares our of DFW. There’s more availability on AA than SWA at the moment. “Basic Economy” fares will have more restrictions and fees than the Southwest fares, but may work better for you if you’re a loyalist or prefer DFW over DAL. As of September 5th, “Basic Economy” fares on AA allows for a free carry-on bag.

Note: You can save up to an additional $150 if you book a Flight+Hotel package on Southwest Vacations and use the PLANNOW18 coupon-code at checkout. Before you commit, always compare the prices of the individual Flights and Hotel against hotel booking sites like Tripadvisor and Hotels Combined.

  • 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.
  • 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.
