I was researching flights LAS-DEN about a week ago, and even happen to take a screenshot, so I know I'm not imagining things.



Today I was going back to possibly purchase this, and it doesn't even show up in the search. I don't see this flight option on any days on or near 10/11, so sold out seems implausible. Why else would it disappear from the search?

If I search from today forward, it shows up until tues 9/8, then it stops showing up. That would make me think seasonal, but if so then why did it show up last week for me??

I can't answer where the flight went, but there's a 10:05 Southwest flight for $141.

dang, I just logged in to SW, and had no idea I have 22,500 points!

But almost every flight that day is 23k, can I still book that somehow?
I do cash + points, but using 20k points only takes off $120 from $267.. so that seems like a ripoff. the flight itself total points is 23k.

Everything about booking flights is a ripoff. It's by design and why they pay all the mid 20s MBA employees to model how best to rip you off.

You can buy 3000 points for $54 right now with their promotion. But that's a way worse deal than the value of the points towards airfare. Seems like a lot of work for a $140 flight.
