Picture it: Christmas Eve morning.

Alaska Air is and has been posting $99 SEA-RNO each way. Jump to 12:30pm. Suddenly the price is $52 each way. Wait. Check other sites, check their social media feeds. No notice of this dramatic price drop. What's a gal to do?

To quote "Hawaii 5-0"? Book 'em Danno.

Now, 1 hour later….let's check those prices again. Yep, $99 each way.

Looks like Christmas brought a 4 hour window of wonder to Zydeco. Merry Holidays and bring on the Bloody Mary and Basque food.

Now that is one fantastic price and have heard nothing but good about Alaska Air. Wonder how much longer they'll be unattached.

We used to get prices like that from Southwest Airlines (Seattle to Reno) 12 - 14 years ago. Those days seem to be long gone - except for those who are as vigilant as you!

I'm thinking that Zedyco was looking for an excuse to go to Reno. Why else would she keep looking at airfares to Reno? Well, it worked.

Free Bags? Just think of all the pairs of shoes you can pack.
Very Happy

The trip is already off to a great start.

I was looking! I was kicking myself because I missed the Black Friday Sale ($69 each way). Just feeling sorry for myself on Christmas Eve I guess and trolling the sites.

There it was.

This trip I AM going to Napa Bistro at Atlantis for Happy Hour. I have not been able to get my travel group to do it (Roxy's is our 4-6pm Go-To)…this time….YES!
