Is United seeking to share the throne with Southwest? Southwest initiated a fare war on Tuesday and now, alongside American, United is matching the low fares. But wait—Alaska, Continental, United, and others also extend the low-fare carpet.
When Southwest announced its impressive $39 one-way sale Tuesday, it looked like no one could touch it. Now American is also offering fares from $39 one-way. Continental, US Airways, United, Virgin America, and Delta also enter the fray.
Featuring Calgary, Montreal, Toronto, Vancouver, and other destinations, Air Canada is offering sale fares for travel through late June. Book fares by Tuesday, February 16.
