Airline Travel Information

The first four selections below are links to major computer reservation systems (CRS). They provide flight information for all major airlines, but not always Southwest Airlines.

Travelocity

Accesses American Airlines Sabre system to search airline schedules, fares, and book tickets. Anyone can use this system to search for flights and fares after initially providing minimal "new member" information; however, a credit card number (which can be called in on an 800 number) is required to hold or book a reservation. This CRS does include flights on Southwest Airlines.

ORBITZ.COM

Internet Travel Network

Reservations can be booked and routed through a local travel agent online. (You can request the agent to call you to get your credit card number, however.)
