Looks like $92 across the board for August. Need September though.

Ack!! Still nothing past Aug 31 that I can see

Trying to go to Disney in August. I can see the low fair calendar August dates but the SW main page is still saying only through August 10th...Any ideas how to fix this?!?!?

Where do you find the low fare calendar? Im on their website and still see nothing past August 10th

Been refreshing all morning for September flights...out of town currently in Texas so I just want to get this done and move on with my day.

Click your travel dates from the low fare calendar and book from there.

Just book through the low fare finder. I just did for our late August trip. $97 and $117 each way. Great times and direct flights.

20 mins later and still only August flights available on the low fare calendar. Forgot how painful this was!

Sounds like BS to me. People are curtailing or cancelling travel, the system should have less traffic. We're going to F&W for 9 days in Oct regardless, assuming Disney is even open.

For the immediate time yes. For the time frame that SW is releasing today, not so much. People are moving upcoming soon trips out to these new dates.

Just booked our return flights to PHL from MCO for $79 in August! I did notice that the EBCI went up since the last time we flew SW (August 2018). It's good I'm still happy!

ETA: I booked through the Low Fare Calendar as the dates weren't loaded the other way

 

[AngiTN]

8:50 am - LOW FARE CALENDAR IS STARTING TO LOAD WITH NEW FLIGHTS!!!

Click your travel dates from the low fare calendar and book from there.

That doesn't work. At least not for my flights.
The calendar shows but you can't click on the dates and get individual flights.
The Search button is grayed out

Thanks for the tip about the low fare calendar. I booked our August return. It's still not working thru a regular booking search.

 

[AngiTN]

Looks like they haven't really "released" them yet.
If you look at their blurb, it still reads "Booking flights through Aug 10" so they aren't officially taking more than that yet.
With only Aug and only then just some via the calendar I would assume those are loaded because the first few days of Aug has been bookable. They've probably got the dates loaded and ready to turn on at some point and Aug is only showing up for now since part of the month was already open, if that makes sense.

Not sure why that is happening for you. Did you click your return flight too if you have a return flight you're looking for?

I'm waiting for Sep flights but I have been able to look at August flight options. Others have successfully booked their August flights also using the low fare calendar.

Sorry! Wish I could be of more help! Right now I'm wearing out my refresh button!!

Booked my 8/31 flight to Orlando for $99 at a decent time.

My return would be in Sept but I only book 1 leg at a time all the time.
Makes perfect sense to me that it's not fully populated/released yet because they haven't really released the calendar yet. I'm certain when the release really happens, it will work fine.
Just like when people find back doors in to Disney's systems and try to book things early, results are helter skelter. Patience will help and make it much easier. They aren't going to sell out, not when most can't even figure out how to book

 

[scrappinginontario]

Keep trying @AngiTN as others are successfully booking. They're loading more constantly...although slowly this morning!

 

[pooh'smate]

It is open for me through Oct.

 

[DrFacilier]

My thanks too! I had been impatiently checking all morning and then decided to stop by this thread to see what was up. Just booked our August trip through the low fare calendar for less than 9k points per person. Does this low fare calendar thing always work on release days?
