** FYI this is subject to change and isn't always available on release day

The chart above shows approx. the last 2 year's worth of releases. Earlier data can be seen here in one of my prior posts. This information could be useful to approximate when your travel time may become available for upcoming releases, however they don't always follow the exact same pattern (as you can see above).
For those that care about "release timing" it can vary, but here are the recent "go live" of previous releases including today:

Release Date | Time (eastern)
4/1/20 | 9:10am
12/10/20 | 7:15am
8/13/20 | 9:15am
5/28/20 | 9:06am
3/12/20 | 9:40am
12/11/19 | 9:10am
10/30/19 | 7:15am
9/26/19 | 7:30am
8/15/19 | 10:41am
5/30/19 | 9:20am

New fares may be up but whoa....I’m not paying these prices!!! I’m thinking maybe SWA wants to see who bites ....
 
It opened up , but the prices are not low at all to Tampa from Dallas
oh well, I will keep checking I guess
 
Fares were not great but were able to use our travel funds from last year's cancelled trip. Hope everyone got what they wanted!
 
Well, I got my flights booked, but the site must be slammed right now. I’m trying to go back & add my DH as my companion & can’t even get the site to load. Not worried about anything selling out, I just want to get it done.
 
I need feedback. I will be using a companion pass. Prices seem high at the moment, but in line with what they have been charging for dates further out. Should I purchase now or wait? Should I use points? Will prices rise as things open up? I believe I'd have to call to adjust to a lower fare/points, because of the companion pass.

Ours were priced close to what I thought, a little higher (maybe $20) but still reasonable enough for me to book. Booked with points as I'm fully expecting I'll have to cancel. Time will tell....
