$29 flights available on Southwest for this winter

If you're looking to travel this winter (not around the holidays), Southwest Airlines has an sale for you.

The carrier announced it would sell flights for as little as $29 one-way for passengers who book before 11:59 p.m. CT on Oct. 6 for travel between Nov. 29 and Feb. 15. The period from Dec. 16 to Jan. 9 is excluded.

"We're making it easier for customers to book their winter getaway with confidence," Bill Tierney, Southwest's vice president of marketing and digital experience, said in a statement. "We're ready to serve our Customers and take them where and when they need to go."

Promotional fares come with other restrictions, including not being valid for Friday or Sunday travel.
