Yup, You Can Fly Home For The Holidays For As Little As $29 With This Southwest Airlines Cheap Flights Deal

Oct 18, 2023

When I found out I could potentially buy my plane ticket home for Christmas for as much money it’d take to pay for a single night of takeout, I ran to book it. That’s right – Southwest Airlines is running a low rate flights deal for today and tomorrow (October 18-19) only, and it’s *quite* unbeatable. One-way flights can dip as low as $29 each, which is extremely rare for the travel scene, and extremely fortunate for your wallet. Here are all the details you need to know before you look at low rate flights.

As with any amazing sale, there’s always a catch. Southwest’s offers on cheap flights are limited by when you book them and when the actual flights are. Here are the qualifications your travel plans need to meet in order to take advantage of these low rate flights:

The sale is valid as long as you book your travel between now and 11:59pm Pacific Time on October 19.
The sale is valid only on flights that depart before 8am or after 7pm.
The sale is valid as long as your travel is booked 21 days in advance.
The sale is valid as long as you’re not traveling on these dates:
- November 17-22
- November 25-27
- December 21-23
- January 1-2, 2024
- February 16, 2024
- February 19, 2024
If you’re traveling through Orange County (SNA) any time between November 7-January 2, 2024, the sale is not valid.

All low rate flights that you book under Southwest’s sale are nonrefundable, but if you have a change in plans, don’t fret. The funds you spend on these low rate flights can be applied toward future travel with Southwest as long as you cancel the reservation at least 10 minutes prior to the scheduled departure.

I secured my cheap flights particularly for getting back home for the holidays. At the lowest fares possible, Southwest still has some killer offers, especially for a low-maintenance traveler like me. Their most basic tier of service, called Wanna Get Away, earns you two free checked bags, plus no extra fees if you change or cancel your plans.

So I’m urging you to run, don’t walk, to Southwest Airlines for some *super* low rate flights this season.

What is the best tier on Southwest?

Southwest has a number of different tiers based on fares: Wanna Get Away (lowest), Wanna Get Away Plus, Anytime, and Business Select (highest), and three different membership tiers. Each fare tier compounds on each other, so if you get a higher tier like Business Select, you'll still reap the benefits from the lower tiers. The best tier on Southwest will really on what you want out of your travel experience, but here's a quick outline on what each tier offers.

Wanna Get Away

Non-refundable flights, but flight credit if you cancel
Two bags fly free
No change or cancel fees
Free same-day standby
Earn 6 times fare in Rapid Rewards points on qualifying flights

Wanna Get Away Plus

Non-refundable flights, but flight credit if you cancel
Transferable flight credit
Free same-day confirmed travel changes
Earn 8X fare in Rapid Rewards points on qualifying flights

Anytime

Refundable flights

Priority and express lane boarding

Business Select

Refundable flights
Priority boarding A1-A15
Premium drink on flights 176 miles or more
Free in-flight internet
Earn 12X fare more Rapid Rewards points on qualifying flights

How does boarding work on Southwest?

Boarding on Southwest works via boarding group process. You won't know your boarding group until you check in for your flight, which can make some aspect of your travel unpredictable. You will be assigned a group (A, B, or C) and a reserved position (1-60+) that indicates where to line up before boarding your plane. When your group is called, the flight attendants on-duty will guide you to your designated place on the plane.

2024’s Biggest Travel Trends To Find Your Next Destination

If you’ve been itching to pack your bags and book a flight, but don’t know where to jet off to quite yet, taking a peek at the biggest travel trends for 2024 may help you land on your final destination. Between where to go and how to get there, there are some really cool travel trends we’re seeing emerge for the year. Read on for 2024’s travel trends!

2024 Travel Trends: Where To Go

Shoulder Cities

You’ve got your stereotypical spring break destinations – think Miami or Orlando, but one of the biggest travel trends we’re seeing in 2024 thus far is “shoulder” cities. Travelers are opting to stay in cities close to landmark destinations since accommodations in shoulder cities typically cost less.

For example, Pricelinesaw a 20% jump in hotel searches in Kissimmee, Florida, where hotel rates typically cost $100+ less per night than stays in Orlando.

Asia’s On The Itinerary

According to Priceline, interest in traveling to Asian countries is on the rise for 2024. This year so far, they’ve observed a nearly 400% increase in searches for Hong Kong, a 361% increase in searches for Taipei, and a 149% increase in searches for Bangkok.

Young Travelers Are Going Solo

According to a travel trends report by American Express, 76% of Millennials and Gen Z respondents say they are planning on taking a solo trip in 2024. This comes at no surprise, especially considering that solo travel has grown in popularity over the past few years.

Per Google Trends, searches for ‘solo travel’ have increased every year in the past decade (with 2020 being an exception, as COVID limited travel worldwide). Whether young travelers are taking a trip solo for solely self-care or simply having more freedom when traveling, we’ll likely continue to see the trend growCaught the solo travel bug? Check out our list of solo travel tips.

Traveling For Main Events

One of the biggest travel trends for 2024 has roots in 2023, with many travelers having the desire to travel for big events like concerts and sports games.

We saw this with Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour, where many dedicated fans would travel across state lines (or several state lines) to see her. Unsurprisingly, people are still spending on travel even though concert tickets are quite expensive (per Gametime, the average Taylor Swift ticket price for 2024 is $3,525.42)!

Lyft observed the economical impact of the Eras Tour through an influx of ride shares. According to Lyft, when a city hosted an Eras Tour show, the number of total Lyft rides went up an average of 7.6%.

Cincinnati saw the greatest increase in hotel stays for the Eras Tour (63%), which may help explain why a room at Days Inn & Suites shot up from about $72 to $1,024 per night in that window, according to Cincinnati Enquirer.

Travel trends in relation to sports games aren't too dissimilar from the Swiftie travelers. According to American Express, 67% of Millennial and Gen Z respondents are interested in traveling for sporting events in 2024. Furthermore, 58% of respondents who are traveling for sports in 2024 will do so for soccer, basketball, or Formula 1 racing.

Considering the Paris summer Olympics are coming up in July, American Express also found that New York, Miami and Paris are the top destinations to travel to for sporting events in 2024.

Loud Budgeting For Travel

According to Priceline’s latesttrip planning survey, more than a quarter of respondents say that finding a good deal on flights and hotel rooms is the most exciting part about booking a trip. Travel is not always cheap, so loud budgeting has been apparent in the planning process.

This has led travelers to plan smart: waiting for the best day of the week to book a flight, using travel price tracking tools like Google Flights and Priceline, and scouring accommodation options beyond hotels into Airbnbs and hostels.

I Tried Dunkin’s New Summer Menu – I’m So Obsessed With These 3 Items

TheDunkin' summer menujust hit stores on May 1, and I was so excited to get my hands on the new lineup! In addition to an all-new Refresher flavor, Dunkin’ launched two unique coffee-based drinks and three fun food items (both sweet and savory) to coordinate with the summer season. Of course, I had to see what all the hype was about via a bonafide taste test.

Here are my honest thoughts about the new items on the Dunkin’ summer menu, so you know what’s worth trying! Let's get into it!

Watch Me Review The New Drinks

Watch Me Review The New Food Items

Iced Vanilla Frosted Donut Signature Latte

First up, the Vanilla Frosted Donut Signature Latte. This one is so sweet. But so addicting! It may not be the prime choice for those who don’t like sweet drinks, though. I *do* like my coffees fairly sweet, so I didn’t think it was overwhelming when I tried it.

More than anything, this latte simply delivered joy once I got it in my hands. It’s topped with a good amount of whipped cream and a healthy dose of rainbow sprinkles, which fix just about any bad day as far as I’m concerned.

Blueberry Donut Coffee

I go wild for blueberry cake donuts, and I expected the new Blueberry Donut Coffee to taste just like one. I was a bit disappointed when it didn't! I got more of a donut flavor rather than a blueberry one when I sipped down the iced version of this bev.

All things considered, I still loved my first impression of the new Blueberry Donut Coffee. I got it iced (duh), and with cream, it came out to the perfect, most beautiful coffee color. It had maybe 75% of the Vanilla Frosted Donut Signature Latte’s sweetness, which meant it was still sweet enough for my liking.

This could be a great go-to order when you don’t quite want espresso, but are still looking for a nice caffeinated sipper.

Kiwi Watermelon Refresher

The first thing I wrote down in my tasting notes about the brand-new Kiwi Watermelon Refresher was: “MMMMMM SO GOOD.” And I stand by that!

Upon first sip, I got a refreshing (ha, get it?) swig of kiwi flavor and watermelon flavor, which was very nice and evenly balanced. I could see myself gulping this one down at the park or on a road trip this summer! It honestly tasted like candy, which I am not mad about a single bit.

That being said, most of the Dunkin’ Refreshers are really sweet, so if you like milder drinks, you may not fully like this newcomer.

I also got to try the Kiwi Watermelon Refresher with lemonade – a new thing for Dunkin’. I really loved it! With the lemonade, I still got the full effect from the kiwi and watermelon. It was never overpowered, unlike other fruity lemonade beverages from similar coffee chains.

Watermelon Burst Donut

I was really hesitant to try this new menu item because I normally don’t associate watermelon with donuts. One thing about the new Watermelon Burst Donut is that she’s messy… This sweet treat is coated in tons of pink, watermelon-flavored sprinkles and filled to the brim with watermelon jelly.

The first bite I took was just of the donut dough itself – and it wasn’t half bad! My only complaint at that point was the fact that the pink sprinkles got all over the place. They made my lips and mouth messy, and fell off into my lap and around my car. Yikes!

The second bite, of course, included some of the watermelon jelly. This is when I decided that the Watermelon Burst Donut just isn't for me. The bready part was good, but the jelly was super sour – just not what I'd prefer from a donut as a chocolate girlie. I wouldn’t order it on my own accord.

Chocolate Chunk Cookie

Chocolate chunk cookies are classic – you can’t deny that! You also can’t mess it up, IMO. Dunkin’ hit the nail right on the head with this new packaged snack. First of all, I adore the size of the Chocolate Chunk Cookie. It’s huge and packed with big chocolate chunks – as it should be!

There’s a nice variety with texture in this cookie, too. I found that the chocolate chunks were creamy and sweet, while the rest of the cookie was crunchy and downright cookie-like. It made eating it fun!

The pre-packaged-ness of it all is also super nice for snacking on-the-go, or even saving for later (midnight snack, anyone?).

Green Goddess Wrap

Seemingly a direct competitor for Starbucks’ popular Spinach Feta Wrap, the new Green Goddess Wrap from Dunkin’ thoroughly impressed me. Unlike its counterpart, the Green Goddess Wrap is delivered with a very nice texture. I find that other options typically get soggy (after being warmed and put in a bag) and fall apart, but this one didn’t get that way at all.

I loved that the outside of the wrap got a little bit crispy, while the inside stayed gooey and warm. While the texture is quite enjoyable, I was left wishing for more flavor from the wrap’s contents.

Even if it was lacking a bit in flavor, you could easily doctor it up with spices, salt, or hot sauce. More than anything, I appreciate that the Green Goddess Wrap provides a substantial option for breakfast, brunch, or lunch via drive-thru.

Here's When You Can Watch "The Summer I Turned Pretty" Season 3

Thanks to Sean Kaufman and Rain Spencer (as well as all the pros behind the camera), the best TV scene of 2023 came out this summer when The Summer I Turned Prettygave us Steven and Taylor (played by Sean and Rain, respectively) dancing to Frank Ocean's cover of "Moon River." I absolutely lost my mind! This series is one of the best teen dramas around, and good news for fans of all things Cousins Beach: we're getting The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3! Here's everything we know about the new TV show— including a look at our convo with lead actress Lola Tung!

When will The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3 come out?

Image via Erika Doss/Prime Video

Jackie Chung (Laurel) and Sean Kaufman (Steven)

We were hoping to see The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3 return in 2024, but thanks to a new post from the official TSITP account, we know the show will drop summer 2025. Okay, TBH that's a total bummer (just because we can't wait to watch!!), but, as the books say, It's Not Summer Without You (er, Belly and her friends).

Lola Tung starred as Euridyce in Hadestown on Broadway until March 17, 2024. During the official press day — which you can watch on TikTok — she told me that while she doesn't know too much about Belly's arc this season, she's just as excited to return to Cousins Beach as we are! "I'm just very excited to be back with everyone and to be able to step back into Belly's shoes, I'm super excited," she says.

Who's going to be in The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3 cast?

Image via Erika Doss/Prime Video

Gavin Casalegno (Jeremiah), Lola Tung (Belly), Christopher Briney (Conrad), Sean Kaufman (Steven) in The Summer I Turned Pretty

Considering the third book, We'll Always Have Summer, revolves around Belly, Conrad, and Jeremiah, we're expecting The Summer I Turned Pretty cast to include Lola Tung, Christopher Briney, and Gavin Casalegno. We're also hoping to see Sean Kaufman, Rain Spencer, Jackie Chung, and Rachel Blanchard again!

After a variety of cast members were spotted around Wilmington, North Carolina, fans were hoping to see Christopher Briney — and it looks like he has finally arrived! "CONRAD FISHERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR IS HOMEEEEEEEEEEE," one X user says along with an image of Christopher Briney.

Where can I watch The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3?

Image via Erika Doss/Prime Video

Christopher Briney (Conrad), Lola Tung (Belly)

The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3 will be available to stream on Prime Video, which is where you can watch season 1 and 2 right now!

Who does Conrad end up with in The Summer I Turned Pretty series?

Image via Prime Video

While we don't know who Conrad will end up with in The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3, there is one theory that suggests his reunion with Belly will be better than ever. Lola Tung, Rain Spencer, Gavin Casalegno, and other cast members have been spotted around Wilmington — all except Chris Briney.@julevere wonders if they're filming in chronological order for one specific reason.

"You don't see Conrad for ages in book 3," she says. "What if Jenny [Han] is doing that on purpose so the actual moment in the show where Conrad and Belly see each other for the first time, [in a way] that's going to be the first legitimate time those two actors as...Belly and Conrad will see each other."

Waiting as long as possible for Lola Tung and Chris Briney to see each other means that Belly and Conrad's reunion will be more intense, and bring up all the old emotions (and infinity necklaces) that came up during season 2. If there's one thing this show has taught me, it's that you can only run from your feelings for so long and as a member of #TeamConrad, I'm hoping any reunion between the two brings them together for potential future seasons.

How old are the characters?

Image via Erika Doss/Prime Video

Lola Tung (Belly) and Christopher Briney (Conrad)

In season one, Conrad is going to be a freshman in college, while the rest of the characters are still in high school. And at the beginning of season 2, Steven graduates from high school!

How many episodes are in The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3?

Image via Erika Doss/Prime Video

Lola Tung (Belly), Christopher Briney (Conrad), and Rain Spencer (Taylor)

The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3 will have 10 episodes instead of eight like the previous two seasons!

Where is The Summer I Turned Pretty filmed?

Image via Amazon Studios/Prime Video

Even though The Summer I Turned Pretty is set on the coast of Massachusetts, the show is filming in Wilmington, North Carolina. This city is actually pretty well known in Hollywood — projects like Iron Man 3,One Tree Hill, and Outer Banks have filmed there! As someone who grew up going to Wilmington every single summer, I can promise you it's just as pretty as it looks (and the fair from season 2 is just as fun!!)

Is there a 4th Summer I Turned Pretty?

Image via John Merrick/Prime Video

Christopher Briney (Conrad), Lola Tung (Belly)

There is not a fourth The Summer I Turned Pretty book, but that doesn't mean the show has to end with season 3. They've already changed a few details from the books — namely, adding the Stephen/Taylor relationship reminds me of how Gossip Girl gave us Chuck and Blair, a fan-favorite ship that wasn't in those books either! I'm excited to see how the story (and the characters) continue to grow and evolve!

The Summer I Turned Pretty Season 3 Announcement

Image via Prime Video

Lola Tung (Belly), Rain Spencer (Taylor)

Prime Video announced the renewal on August 3, right before episode five of the second season hit the streaming service. Just like the season two trailer, Taylor Swift's "august" plays in the background and I'm in tears.

“We’ve been delighted to see the passion with which fans have embraced The Summer I Turned Pretty,” Amazon and MGM Studios' head of television Vernon Sanders says in a press release. “Jenny Han is a gifted storyteller, whose fans have been clamoring for the third chapter of this story. We’re excited today to share the news that they have a lot more Summer to look forward to."

7 Styles That Prove Rothy’s Are The Cool Girl Shoe Of The Summer

You’ve probably already spotted these shoes on your favorite influencer. Rothy’s are swiftly becoming The Shoe to have, and it’s clear why. Rothy’s offers a wide range of trendy shoe options, from Mary Janes to ballet flats and platform sandals toclogs (all of which are stunning and exceptionally comfortable), but more importantly, they’re made with special attention to sustainability.

Rothy’s are crafted from single-use plastics and other repurposed organic materials in order to promote circular fashion and zero-waste practices in the industry. Sustainability is chic – and Rothy’s is a testament to that!

They’re oh-so worth the investment knowing your purchase supports their sustainable mission. All Rothy’s shoe styles (and even their bags) are fully machine washable to keep them nice and new-looking, no matter what. They’re staples that’ll last you a lifetime and tons of mileage.

Here are the 7 most iconic Rothy’s silhouettes you should rock this summer!

The Square Mary Jane

This signature Rothy's shoe (seriously, it's all over our FYP) features a flexible, stretchy woven upper layer – and it's so comfy. These Mary Janes boast a square toe for added chicness and an attached strap for wearing them with ease. No buckles or buttons here! Each pair is fitted with durable outsoles that easily tolerate city walks and park strolls. It won't even feel like you're wearing flats.

The Square Mary Jane goes for $159 and is available in 10 different colors.

The Ballet Flat

The bows on these ballet flats are the perfect size, TBH. They add an air of cuteness that any summer 'fit could benefit from! These shoes feature a very trendy rounded toe and a mesh construction that adds breathability to each and every step. Rothy's promises "no break in period, ever" with the cozy insole you can enjoy wearing all day long.

The Ballet Flat is shoppable for $145 and is available in 18 different colors and patterns.

The Point II

New office shoes, incoming! These pointed babies give some real sophisticated vibes – the pointed toe is signature of slingbacks, too, but this version is way more comfortable. The Point II from Rothy's is essentially an upgraded version of their OG The Point shoe. According to the brand, this new iteration has a "more spacious toebox, added elastic, sculpted outsoles and our innovative In Love Insole™ for outrageous all-day comfort." The mesh material on this pair makes for the perfect summer shoe since it's very elastic-like, moving accordingly with your step.

The Point II costs $155 and is available in a whopping 29 different colors and patterns.

The Espadrille

A more elevated style than the aforementioned shoes, these espadrilles are a great go-to for more formal summer occasions. The upper's made from a breathable hemp fabric that supplies a lightweight feel to the feet. Rothy's promise for these slip-ons is that they have an "unbelievably cushy footbed." The ankle ties pictured above are removable, so there's a good amount of styling possibilities with this Rothy's shoe.

The Espadrille is shoppable for $139 in 8 different colors.

The Lightweight Wedge Sandal

For a slight boost in height (that's still wickedly comfortable), call on The Lightweight Wedge Sandal. The layered heel height measures about 2.25 inches, and feels like an absolute dream! The stretchy straps atop these Rothy's shoes are stitched on, so you're not left messing with any finicky buttons, clasps, or buckles (or chafing, for that matter). The thicker platform ends in the brand's signature durable outsole for practical reasons – walking, strolling, skipping, or even dancing in the summertime. Whatever floats your boat!

The Lightweight Wedge Sandal costs $179 and is available to shop in 3 different neutral colorways.

The Weekend Slide

This cheetah print just oozes trendiness. The slide-on fit of these Rothy's sandals makes outings so easy, you won't want to wear anything else. The thick duo straps made of hemp provide some good coverage on top of the foot, so you'll feel fully fitted. The footbed is made from a durable contoured rubber, still has some softness to it for walking purposes.

The Weekend Slide costs $139 and is shoppable in 5 different colors and patterns.

The Casual Clog

This ultra-cool girl clog is available in 3 hemp colors and 5 Merino wool colors for cooler weather, but no matter the time of year, they're gonna look gorgeous. They boast a ribbed outsole for added traction, and they're fully free of any extra bells and whistles. The very simple outer layer meets a contoured footbed with some lovely arch support to encourage a cozy step.

The Casual Clog goes for $159.
