After so much end-of-the-year holiday travel confusion from Southwest Airlines, travelers are finally back home and operations are back to normal for the carrier. Will you fly Southwest again? I’m sure that depends.
From Atlanta, the airline currently has some cheap flights for January, February and March 2023, if you want to take advantage.
How Far Out Are Southwest Airlines’ Cheapest Fares?
A sampling of airfares in the first week of January 2023 from Atlanta to Los Angeles shows fares as cheap as $148 one way deep into summer.
The airline seems to have course corrected since an epic failure of mass cancellations in which thousands of passengers were left stranded right before the Christmas holiday.
What Caused Southwest To Cancel So Many Flights?
A perfect storm of events has led Southwest to cancel its flight schedules en mass, including an unusually large arctic blast that briefly swept over the continental United States.
According to news reports, Southwest has canceled more than 15,700 flights since December 22.
Another issue that hurt the airline is its dependence on free-flying planes from one destination to another rather than a traditional “hub” system used by Delta, United and other major airlines.
Should I Fly Southwest Airlines?
Although Southwest is doing what it can to catch up its flight schedule, fliers will have to make a real decision on whether to fly the airline after this.
One thing Southwest has for it is it’s relatively cheap fares and generous baggage policy.
Finding affordable fares that allow you to travel anywhere for cheap is an art and a science this days. Thankfully, Southwest Airlines has frequent sales.
This article will tell you how to get the best Southwest fare you can get as well as what to expect on your flight.
Flying Southwest? Here’s What You Need To Know
We’ve previously covered Southwest’s Low Fare Calendar. In this article, we’ll discuss the process you’ll likely go through on a Southwest airlines flight and other things you’ll want to know.
Southwest is popular among fliers because it’s the only major airline that allows you to carry two free checked bags. Some other perks you get with Southwest are:
- No change fees
- No cancel fees
On most Southwest flights, you also get same-day changes, same-day standby and the fares are refundable.
Sign Up For Southwest Rapid Rewards
One way to save on a flight is to take advantage of Southwest’s Rapid Rewards program.
With Rapid Rewards, you earn 2 points per $1 spent on Southwest and 1 point per $1 on all other purchases.
To maximize your savings, you may opt to buy your fare with cash rather than use your Rapid Rewards points.
Will Southwest Flights Go Down In Price?
Southwest Airlines usually publishes its sales on a seasonal basis. If you’re a Rapid Rewards member, you’ll get an email with low fares to several destinations.
Out of Atlanta, the emails will usually look like this.
Where Does Southwest Airlines Fly For $49?
One of Southwest’s most popular fares is its cheap $49 flights, which typically cover cities between 300 to 500 miles from each other.
For example, Southwest has a route that goes from Atlanta to Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. Although they may advertise it for a cheap price, Southwest is known to go up on the price from one day to the next.
What Day Are Southwest Fares Cheaper?
Southwest usually drops its fares on Tuesdays, which is when its members get emails advertising cheap flights.
On Tuesdays, Southwest matches prices to compete with low-cost carriers. You can either try to book in the morning or afternoon to get a flight.
How To Book A Flight On Southwest
To book a flight on Southwest Airlines, go to Southwest.com and enter your departing city or airport and arriving city/airport.
Is Southwest The Cheapest Airline?
Southwest Airlines is known as a low-cost airline, but it’s not the cheapest. Their are other airlines with lower fares, but you won’t get the same customer service that you get with Southwest.
JetBlue Airways and Spirit Airlines both have competitive flights along with Southwest, but neither of them give you two free bags.
Final Word
If you’re considering flying with Southwest, always check their Wanna Get Away fares, which are the best deals. Wanna Get Away flights offer cheap economy fares that are hard to beat.
If your destination is not as popular, you may be able to get a cheap fare closer to the departure date, but it just depends.
Thinking about getting away? Get your passport, and do your research to find the cheapest flights from Atlanta that are on sale. And don’t forget these travel hacks to save money and time.
To Atlanta is one of the most convenient places to travel to and from. A large part of that is because Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport is so accessible.
Not only is it the world’s busiest airport, but it’s state-of-the-art in every way. If you’re interested in traveling around Atlanta via car or even on scooter, here’s what to know.

The Atlanta real estate market is poised for a comeback this year. To make sure your home sells, you’ve got to spruce it up in a creative way.
This article will show you some great ideas on how to spruce up your home’s curb appeal so that it entices potential buyers.
Here Are 6 Awesome Curb Appeal Ideas
Selling a home in Atlanta, or any large city right now, can be chaotic.
Cut Your Grass
This one is obvious, but in the warmer months, your lawn can get out of control rather quickly. Keep a lawnmower on the property so you or a lawn maintenance worker can get to work keeping your grass cut.
It may not seem like much, but having a well-manicured lawn adds points to your home’s overall appearance. Want to save gas? Check out this electric mower.
Trim Your Hedges
Always make sure your hedges, trees and shrubs are trimmed to compliment your home. The last thing a potential buyer wants to see are wayward vines and branches encroaching on the porch or walkway.
Take the time to invest in some shears so that you can cut your shrubs and other things out of the way.
Get Your Home A Paint Job
PermaWhite Exnterior Semi-Gloss
A fresh coat of paint can work wonders to a drab house looking for some life. Look for colors that give the illusion of width and height rather than opting for your personal favorite.
If you can’t afford to get your home painted, think about some new ways to accent your exterior with house plants that add color.
Keep Your Gutters Clean
Another cosmetic thing that detracts from your home’s appearance is a gutter or roof filled with leaves.
Can’t get on a ladder to clean your roof’s gutters? Hire someone that can get the job done.
Remove The Clutter
If you’re one of those homeowners who keep old soda cans, vases or other contraptions on the porch, consider removing them before your potential buyer arrives.
Again, you don’t want clutter to steal attention away from your home’s true character.
Pressure Wash Your Concrete
If you have a concrete walkway or driveway, consider getting it pressure washed to get rid of the stain. Your home can really shine once you give your walkway or the sidewalk in front of your home a once over.
Bottom Line
It could cost you a lot of money if you missed out on the sale of your home just because you didn’t tidy things up around the property. In essence, clean up.
The time and energy you spend into boosting your curb appeal will be more than worth it in the long run.
Atlanta has one of the best real estate markets in the country, with affordable housing in every quadrant of the city. Large backyards, manicured parcels and strong neighborhoods with ample dining amenities make it one of the top places for transplants.

If you’re shopping for a home in Atlanta, one of the questions you need to think about is how much house you can afford.
The question is one that needs to be weighed seriously because all you have to do is visit the steps of the Fulton, DeKalb or Cobb County courthouse to see foreclosure auctions in action.
Here’s How Much House You Can Afford In Atlanta (Calculator)
People buy more house than they need for several reasons:
- Bad advice from Realtors
- Keeping up with the Joneses
- Resale purposes
Let’s talk about each of these a little bit before we move into what homes cost in Atlanta:
Bad advice from Realtors
Real estate agents play a vital role in the homebuying process, but you have to know when they’re in and out of their lane.
A Realtor has no business telling you how much house you can afford. That’s what a lender is for. A Realtor should only advise you on what type of home you want.
Still, many people listen to Realtors who are out to make a buck. Some of them will tell you that you can afford the home by this strategy and that strategy, but the truth is, it may be a bad deal.
Keeping up the Joneses
This is the worse reason to buy a big house: To keep up with your neighbors, friends or other family members.
If you are vain enough to buy a huge home because of someone else’s situation, then you’re the type that will end up with bad credit because you’re paying too much for your home, car and appliances.
Resale Purposes
Some potential home shoppers want to buy a home because they think that appreciation is going to let them double or triple their money (again, bad advice).
That’s not the reason you should buy a home. You should purchase a home because you like it, the way it looks, feels and speaks to your sensibilities.
The resale market is too unpredictable to base such a big purchase on, especially if you’re not a seasoned investor.
So, how much home can you afford? Here’s how to find out:
Multiply Your Annual Income
To find out how much home you can afford, you would multiply your annual income by two or three.
Let’s say you make: $50,000 a year. That means you could afford a home that costs anywhere from $100,000 to $150,000.
Of course, this will be affected by two things:
- Interest rate: The percentage that is paid by borrowers for the money that they borrow.
- Credit score: A three-digit number that indicates to banks and other lenders how likely you are to repay debt.
Here Are 5 Ways To Determine How Much Home You Can Afford
Answer these questions:
- 1. How much is your annual income?
- 2. How much is your downpayment?
- 3. What ZIP code do you want to live in?
- 4. How much are your monthly expenses (food, clothing, mortgage, etc)?
- 5. What is your credit score?
Here’s a mortgage calculator to help you:
How Can I Calculate How Much Home I Can Afford?
Other Factors That Determine How Much Home You Can Afford
Another factor that will indicate how much house you can afford is your expense-to-income ratio.
Front-End Ratio
This is how much your monthly expenses are vs. how much income you bring in. Banks like this number, commonly called a “front-end ratio,” to be between 28 and 30%.
Your mortgage lender will look for your mortgage payment and PMI (private mortgage insurance) to all be around 28% of your income.
Debt-To-Income Ratio
You’ll also need to have a relatively low debt-to-income ratio to get the home you want. This means that the amount of debt you’ve borrowed and paying back is not gobbling up most of your income.
Banks like your debt-to-income ratio to be around 36% typically.
Are You A Veteran?
If you have served your country, the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) offers home loans and grants to help you buy, refinance or renovate your home.
For ex-military and their surviving spouses, the VA guarantees part of the loan, meaning they will cover a portion of the loan if you default. Learn more here.
30-Year-Loan Or 15-Year Fixed?
If you have a choice, you may be wondering which is better: A 30-year mortgage or a 15-year mortgage?
The truth is that both have their advantages. A 30-year mortgage would typically mean a lower monthly bill because the payments are spread out over more years.
The bad part is that you’ll pay a lot more in interest over those years.
For a 15-year fixed, the interest rate is lower and you’ll pay off the principal faster.
The bottom line is if you can afford to do a 15-year mortgage, you should!
