Travel Deal of the Day (April 8, 2009)

If you travel to or from New York, your flights likely have or will become much less expensive due to a new arrival at New York’s LaGuardia Airport (LGA) – Southwest Airlines.

The Deal:
Southwest Airlines just announced its new schedule to and from LGA. Southwest will offer multiple nonstop flights between Chicago Midway and LGA as well as Baltimore/Washington (BWI) and LGA. Fares for BWI-LGA start at $49/way; fares for Midway-LGA start at $89/way; and fares across the country to LGA are mostly $99/way (which is very cheap for many cities into LGA).

How:
