Southwest 72-Hour Sale Flights From Providence Just Arrived

Southwest Airlines just announced a 72-hour sale and tickets nationwide can be had for as low as $49. Green Airport is getting in on the low fares.

The Southwest sale, launched Tuesday, includes short and long routes and the ticket prices generally reflect that — the shorter the trip, the cheaper the fare.
