Fun with airfares
So I went down to CPTWG in Los Angeles today (March 3). According to Southwest's web site, it costs $97 each way if you go down and back on March 3.
However, a round-trip with an overnight stay is much cheaper ($39 each way). If I went down on March 2 and back on March 3, or down on March 3 and back on March 4, it would be $39 each way.
So Shari had asked "When is the next meeting?".
I booked a round-trip OAK-LAX flight leaving the morning of March 3 and returning the evening of April 14. I also got a round-trip LAX-OAK flight leaving the evening of March 3 and returning the morning of April 14.
So this morning, I flew out of Oakland on a long (over a month long!) business trip. This evening, I flew out of Los Angeles on a second long (over a month long!) business trip.
My business trips will run concurrently for over a month (as I just said). Then, on the morning of April 14, I'll fly home to Los Angeles from my trip to Oakland. That evening, I'll fly home to Oakland from my trip to Los Angeles.
Sure enough, Southwest charged $39 per flight segment for the flights I booked this way. But if I'd booked a pair of OAK-LAX round trips (which would have me departing on the same physical airplanes at exactly the same times on exactly the same dates), it would have been $97 per flight segment, or up to $232 more.
I'm sure this trick has a name.
