Availability
While I haven’t taken a deep dive into the availability of the lowest fares that Alaska Airlines is offering, the quick look that I’ve had seems to indicate that availability drying up.
The $99 one-way fare from San Jose to Maui appears to be readily available…
…but the cheapest ($99) flights to Cabo are now hard to find and the great fares from Seattle and San Francisco to Hawaii are rapidly disappearing.
At the time of writing there are still a number of great deals to be had if you’re happy to travel in September but if you see a fare that works for you, now is not the time to procrastinate – a fare that’s bookable now may not be available in an hour’s time.
Bottom line
Alaska Airlines is currently offering a number of good deals for travel between the West Coast and destinations in Hawaii and Mexico. The sale runs through 28 July (tomorrow) but with the better deals being snapped up pretty quickly, waiting any longer than you have to before you book could see you missing out.
