Opens in a new window Credit: Southwest Save up to 30% on Southwest Airlines booking use code TAKE30

While we haven't made it to Easter yet, it's already time to be thinking about summer vacation. Before the good flights and the best hotels get booked up, scheduling that August trip now is a great idea. If you have travel plans in the works, check out this Southwest sale.

Until 11:59 p.m. PT tonight, April 7, use code TAKE30 to save up to 30% on Southwest Airlines bookings. Travel dates included in this sale span April 22 through Aug. 27. Discounts and availability depend on routes, and aren't available for travel on Fridays or Saturdays.

Southwest has made waves in recent weeks, but booking today during this sale means you can ignore that news. Last month, Southwest dropped the news that it's eliminating the policy that all bookings come with two free checked bags. But the slightly good news is that this policy doesn't take hold until the end of May. That means booking today's sale will ensure you still get the two free checked bags.

Like all airline sales, there's some fine print to pay attention to. This sale only applies to bookings that are at least 21 days away, meaning when you book today, you'll need to travel on April 28 or later. The discount also only applies to the base fare, not those fun fees, taxes, and airport charges.
