You’ll have to hurry – this deal is only offered for trips booked today or tomorrow, January 30th, by 11:59 PM Pacific Time! It’s valid on travel within the continental US from February 17th to May 20th, 2026. This offer is perfect for your spring break trip or a long weekend getaway.

This deal requires a 21-day advance purchase, so you’ll need to plan in advance. It’s also nonrefundable, other than Southwest’s 24-hour cancellation policy immediately after booking. It’s mostly for flights on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, but there are a few discounted flights on other days of the week.

Flying to our next adventure!

If you’re planning your next Disney World trip, we found the best $49 flights out of MCO are to Atlanta, Georgia, and Miami, Florida. MCO is also close to Disney’s cruise departures at Port Canaveral, so don’t feel limited to just theme parks. Plus, these are one-way flights, so you can easily add a second destination to your trip for even more Disney magic!

Magic Kingdom

If you’re heading to Disneyland in California, we found the best deals from Las Vegas, Nevada, Sacramento, California, Phoenix, Arizona, and Denver, Colorado. Disneyland’s 70th Anniversary Celebration is in full swing with experiences you can only have this year!

Disneyland Main Entrance

If you’re hoping to catch a Disney cruise, there are some great flight deals to San Diego, California, where you can depart for a three to four-night Baja cruise or a five, six, or seven-night cruise on the Mexican Riviera. We found the best deals from Denver, Colorado, Boise, Idaho, and Phoenix, Arizona.
