October by the Numbers
This wasn't just about volume — October showed real depth across regions:
- 177 total destinations from DFW and Love Field
- 78% maximum savings on the best deals
- $47 lowest domestic fare to Orlando
- 79 Asia/Pacific deals including Singapore from $707
Ultra-low-cost carriers dominated domestic routes with $47-$54 fares to Florida and the West Coast, while legacy carriers competed hard on Europe with Barcelona at $426 and Madrid at $470. The Asia-Pacific market delivered 79 deals with Singapore from $707 and Tokyo from $925.
October's Biggest Winners
Three routes stood out with over 70% savings compared to regular pricing:
- Seattle — $54 (78% off) Dec 5-12 on Frontier
- Austin — $67 (73% off) Feb 14-21 on Southwest
- Orlando — $47 (72% off) Dec 14-23 on Frontier
The $47 Orlando fare represents the lowest domestic deal we found all month — perfect timing for December theme park visits before holiday crowds.
Regional Highlights
US West Coast — 78% Savings
The West Coast dominated October's domestic deals. Seattle hit $54 (78% off), San Diego matched at $54 (72% off), and Los Angeles-area airports (Ontario, Burbank) started at $54. Frontier led the charge with ultra-low December fares, while Alaska competed on Portland routes. Best value came from December travel windows.
Europe — Winter & Spring Sweet Spots
Transatlantic routes showed impressive depth with Barcelona from $426, Madrid at $470, and strong competition on major capitals. Winter 2026 and spring shoulder season captured the best pricing — typically 40-50% below summer peak fares. The sweet spot: January-March 2026 departure dates.
Asia & Pacific — 79 Deals Strong
Long-haul routes to Asia showed remarkable depth — 79 deals spanning Singapore ($707), Tokyo ($925), Sydney ($861), and Hawaii from $361. Premium cabin options dropped below $1,500 in business class, exceptional value for flights normally commanding $3,000-5,000.
What We Learned from October
- Ultra-low-cost carriers owned December domestic. Frontier and Spirit dominated with $47-$54 fares. If you can travel light (personal item only), these deals are unbeatable.
- Europe winter/spring pricing beats summer by 40-50%. January-March 2026 fares to Barcelona, Madrid, and Paris came in at $400-$500 roundtrip versus $700-$900 in summer.
- Love Field vs DFW matters for West Coast routes. Southwest from Love Field often matched or beat DFW pricing on Austin, Phoenix, and Vegas. Always check both airports.
- Flexibility = savings. Being flexible with dates within a 1-2 week window revealed savings of 20-40% compared to fixed travel dates.
