If you’ve been in denial about the end of summer by putting off your fall trip planning, it’s time to stop procrastinating. Southwest is running a sale until September 12, with flights as cheap as $49 one way. Fares are valid for travel between September 24 and March 4, 2020, and tickets must be purchased at least 21 days in advance, so if you’re looking for a late September getaway, you’d better hustle.
