[bigjimslade]

I just got this press release form Southwest Airlines. Maybe someone can use this deal to get away for a while.

 

 

ORLANDO, Fla., Feb. 8 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- For the first time ever,

Southwest Airlines Vacations is launching a nationwide sale offering 50

percent off vacation travel packages for a party of two adults. Starting

February 9, 2007, book a two to five night air/hotel package to a valid

destination, staying at a Hilton, Hyatt, or Holiday Inn, and the second adult

in your room travels free! Packages must be booked by February 18, 2007, for

travel beginning February 16, 2007 through April 30, 2007. Valid travel

package destinations include Albuquerque, Chicago (Midway), Nashville, and

Phoenix.

"In the spirit of Valentine's Day, we wanted to do something really

special to show our appreciation for our Customers," said Rich Basen,

Southwest Airlines Vacations Vice President and General Manager. "Now that

U.S. residents must carry a passport when traveling to destinations outside of

Wow! A travel deal for around here?!?!?! Those are hard to come by. Nothing ever comes through Missouri.

It says in your OP something about KC, and on the website, it says from anywhere SW flies, but I can't find how to get the price. It looks like select cities.
